Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry.

I'm not quite sure if technically there is such a thing as a teriyaki stir fry but if there isn't, there should be.  All those lovely flavors with some veggies and cashew nuts thrown in. This was a perfect dinner for a hungry brood AND it can be made ahead of time so all you have to do is zap it for a few minutes in the microwave and it tastes as good as if it just hopped out of the wok - or pan in my case as I don't own a wok. It is equally wonderful made with some skinless boneless chicken thighs, white basmati rice and sauteed bok choy with minced garlic and a few splashes of soy sauce.
