In a dry wok over medium heat, add the cashews. Toast for about 1 minute, stirring continually until toasted slightly (do not burn). Remove cashews.

Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in the wok. Add the chicken; stir-fry until lightly browned, with no pink (about 5 - 6 minutes). Remove the chicken and put on plate.

Stir-fry the mushrooms, carrots and water chestnuts for about 3 minutes. Add cooked chicken, cashews and stir-fry sauce. Stir well. Cover the wok and let the ingredients cook for about 3 minutes.

Add the cornstarch and water mixture, stirring to thicken. Remove from the heat. Serve with the white rice.
