Directions
Cut chicken into 1 inch cubes.
Marinate in sherry, 1 teaspoon cornstarch and dash of soy for 30 minutes.
Heat oil in wok or large frypan.
Add chicken (drained, save marinade) and stir-fry until cooked.
Remove from pan and stir-fry mushrooms.
Add most of broth to pan, saving enough to dissolve remaining cornstarch.
Add hoisin sauce gradually, tasting to avoid making it too strong.
Add more if desired.
Add cornstarch and broth; cook and stir until done, adding water chestnuts.
Cook Ramen noodles, but use only 2 of the 3 flavor packages.
At the last moment, add cashews just to heat and serve mixture over noodles.
You can also add snow peas or other Chinese vegetables or use peanuts or walnuts.
