Chicken Honey Nut Stir-Fry

Not sure how long this has been sitting in my recipe file, but don't think I've ever made it. Had some chicken and vegetables to use last night so used the sauce in this recipe and it was really good. I used green peppers, summer squash, zucchini, and carrots, cubed chicken, and served in a bowl of brown rice. Delicious!

1 lb boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
3/4 cup orange juice
1/3 cup honey
3 T soy sauce
1 T cornstarch
1/4 tsp ground ginger
 2 T oil
2 large carrots, sliced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1/2 cup cashews or peanuts
Hot rice

Combine OJ, honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, and ginger in small bowl and whisk to combine. Heat oil in non-stick pan and saute veggies. Remove, do the same with the chicken. Add back veggies, stir in sauce and heat to thicken. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for a few minutes. Serve over rice.
