Great recipe! I do have to make one very important suggestion. The sauce seemed to be lacking an important flavor...SESAME OIL! A little drizzle stirred in at the end really made it authentic "Springfield Style". Honestly, it wouldn't have been the same without it. Oh, and I garnished w/ green onion. I'll definitely be making this again...the whole family loved it!

I am so very excited to have come accross this!!! I have only been out of the Springfield area for about 9 months and am going into withdrawl! I stupidly ordered cashew chicken from our local chinese place and was so sad to see what I got. Now all we need is a Mexican Villa burrito enchilada style and our home will be set. Thank you so much for this recipe!

I made this last night. I used 2 tblsp oyster sauce (because who wants to measure 1/3 tblsp?) Also I used 1 box of chicken broth and added 2 cubes of chicken bullion to it. With the changes I made it tasted exactly like I remembered it. Now I can ease the cravings of things from my home in Springfield MO, except Schlotzky's. Man I miss that place!

I love this cashew chicken recipe and was so happy to find it on here. It is true you can't find it made the same anywhere else. Ive spent many summers there. And it is one my all time favorites and now my families. Excellent recipe! Thanks for sharing!

I grew up in the springfield area and really miss cashew chicken. Loved how easy this recipe is. However, next time I'll probably use a little less suger and 1 less bouillon. It was a little to sweet and the chicken taste is a little stronger than I remember. Other than that great recipe!

I grew up in Springfield and worked at a chinese food restaurant for 4 years during high school. I must say this is a pretty great recipe and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I now live in MI and cannot get good chinese very often! I only made a couple modifications: I added a spoonful of chopped garlic to the sauce. And for those of you who like it hot I added some chili paste to make it a spicy cashew chicken!

I have made this recipe twice now....and it's been a hit each time! My family is originally from the Ozarks of Missouri and miss this dish very much! Made it for a holiday gathering not long ago and was a huge success!

I have lived in Springfield pretty much all of my life, and this recipe is GREAT!!! I did make a few changes though, after seeing people thought it was too salty (I can't stand salty stuff!!). I used low sodium chicken bouillon cubes, I omitted the salt the recipe called for, and used 1 Lb. of chicken... and it turned out wonderful!!! My husband and I thought it was perfect! Thanks for the recipe! I will definitely make this again!!!
