There is nothing quite like the feeling of coming home after a long day at work to a warm and comforting meal waiting for you. And when it comes to easy and satisfying weeknight dinners, slow cooker cashew chicken is at the top of my list. Loaded with tender chunks of chicken, crunchy cashews, and a flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
I first came across this recipe when I was in college and needed a quick and budget-friendly dinner option. At the time, I had never used a slow cooker before, but the idea of being able to throw everything into one pot and let it cook low and slow sounded too good to be true. Much to my surprise, the end result was a delicious and filling meal that lasted me for days. Now, years later, I still make this recipe whenever I need a no-fuss dinner that will please everyone at the table.
