This recipe wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. We really had to think about whether it was a "do again" or "never again". Since it was just ok, I don't believe I will try it again. I guess I just didn't like the soy sauce flavor with the soups.

After reading the other reviews I made my own variation and the kids loved it. I substituted approximately 4 cups of chicken nuggets for the chicken meat, added another Tbl. of soy sauce, a teaspoon of ginger, some onion and garlic powder and a cup of chinese vegetables. My kids ate this very well and asked that I make it once a week.

My kids weren't thrilled with it. Neither was I. It was VERY easy and quick. But overall, just not a lot of flavor and not something I would make again.

The fastest dish I've ever made... Took only a few minutes to make. I agree that it lacks flavor. I used more soy sauce, boneless chicken thighs (super soft meat) and served with edamame.

Good, but lacks flavor and appealing color. Adding typical Chinese vegetables such as bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, baby corn, etc. helps, as well as a bit more soy sauce and some paprika for the color.

This tastes nothing like the cashew chicken I am used to. Too bland.

I used cream of celery instead of mushroom because I hate mushrooms and it was ok. It is very bland, needs a little spicing up.

My kids loved this recipe. It was sweet and crunchy. A great way to use leftover rice.

this is a very nice dish. i did a couple things of my own... i cooked some boneless skinless chicken breasts instead of the whole chicken then added it in w/ the rest. also added some broccoli. the only thing is , is it is bland. it really needs some kind of spice...

Recipe was very good. It really needed more soy sauce than it called for to give it more flavor. I made it with boneless skinless chicken breasts and it came out great.

I get an awful craving for Cashew Chicken, so I was really pleased to see this recipe. When pre-cooked broccoli bits and sliced water chestnuts are added to the soup mixture, nothing was missing at all! This recipe makes a lot, which is a good thing becuase I can't wait to heat up some leftovers. I will make this again, but probably throw in some baby corn and bamboo shoots next time to give it a little more Chinese restaurant-style fanfare. Try it and see what you think!
