Cashew chicken.


This is one of my fav chicken dish.
This rich , creamy dish goes well with veg fried rice.


Ingredients:
1) 1 pound boneless/with bone chicken cut into small pieces.
2) ginger garlic paste-2 tbsp
3) green chilli paste 1 tsp
4) lemon 1/2
5) curd 2 tbsp.
6) Freshly grated coconut 1/2 cup
7) cashew soaked 12-15
8) salt
9)oil
10) chopped onion 1
11) chopped cilantro
Preparation:
Marinate chicken with ingredients from 1 to 5 overnight.Make a paste of coconut and soaked cashew in a mixer using sufficient amount of water. Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a pan and add marinated chichen and fry on a medium flame. keep frying untill moisture is gone.Then add salt and chopped onion to it and keep frying till it gains a light golden colour. By now chicken will be cooked, else lower the flame and place the lid on the pan and keep mixing in between.
now add the coconut cashew paste and salt according to taste. you can add a pinch of chiili powder if you want it hot. cook it for another 3 min and turn off the gas , garnish with cilantro and add few drops of fresh lemon juice.
