How To Make chicken with macadamia nuts
-
1Marinate the chicken in the egg white while you parboil the vegetables.

2Bring the water to a boil and add the carrots. Cover and bring the water back to a boil and cook for a minute. Add the asparagus and boil for another minute. Drain the vegetables, cool them in cold water and set aside.
-
3In a wok or large skillet, heat the vegetable oil. When very hot, add the chicken and stir-fry over high heat for 1 minute or until the chicken is opaque. Add the garlic, carrots and asparagus and continue to stir-fry for 1 minute more to heat the vegetables through and finish cooking the chicken.
