Cashew Chicken

½ cup milk
1 tsp sugar
2 TBS water
Pepper to taste
2 eggs, well beaten
1-cup flour
Salt
Vegetable oil for frying
4 large chicken breast halves, cut into bite size pieces
1-cup cashew nuts 
½ cup chopped green onions
2 TBS cornstarch
Soy sauce
1 ½ cups chicken broth
Hot fried rice
2 TBS oyster sauce

Marinate chicken in milk, water eggs and salt for 20 minutes.

In a saucepan, dissolve cornstarch in a small amount of broth; add remaining broth gradually to make a paste. Blend in oyster sauce, sugar and pepper. Stir over medium-high heat until sauce boils and begins to thicken. Set aside.
Dredge chicken in flour. Fry in oil in a heavy skillet until crisp and golden. To prevent chicken pieces form ticking together, drop into hot oil one piece at a time. Drain on paper towels. Arrange chicken on serving platter; sprinkle with cashews and green onions.

Reheat sauce and pour over chicken. Serve immediately with soy sauce and rice.
Serves 4.
