Cashew Chicken Kebabs
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups unsalted roasted cashews, plus more, chopped, for serving
3 to 4 tablespoons red curry paste (depending on desired heat)
4 boneless, skinless Pine View Farms chicken thighs (1 1/4 pounds total), cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces (breast fillets works great as well)
Kosher salt
8 ounces vermicelli rice noodles, broken in half
1 English cucumber
2 large carrots, peeled
Vegetable oil, for brushing
cup shredded iceberg lettuce
Lime wedges, for serving
Directions
- Soak eight 8-inch wooden skewers in water 15 minutes.
- In a food processor, pulse cashews with curry paste and 3/4 cup water until smooth. Combine 1 cup of cashew mixture with 1/3 cup water. Toss chicken with remaining mixture; lightly season with salt.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook noodles until just tender, about 2 minutes; drain. Rinse with cold water; drain well.
- With a vegetable peeler or mandoline, shave cucumber and carrots into wide, paper-thin ribbons. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high; lightly brush with oil. Thread chicken onto skewers; grill, in batches if needed, 6 to 8 minutes per side, transferring to a plate as done.
- Serve, with noodles, lettuce, cucumber, carrots, cashew sauce, chopped cashews, and lime wedges.
