Ginger chicken salad with cashew nuts

This was a lovely and very gingery salad. Nice contrast of textures as well.

The recipes uses ginger both to boil the chicken with and to add to the salad dressing. I found boiling it with ginger didn't change the taste of the chicken that much. Maybe if you would have it on its own, but not in this salad with so much more ginger in the dressing. The ginger in the dressing seemed a bit much, so I started with two thirds, tasted it, and decided to add the last third as well, to give a good strong (but not overly hot) ginger taste.
