How to Make Chicken In A Cashew Sauce
- Puree 1 large onion in a blender until smooth.
- Add 1/2 cup tomato puree, 1/2 cup raw cashews, 1 teaspoon garam masala, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste), 1 tablespoon coriander powder, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, salt to taste, and 1/4 cup plain yogurt to the blender. Blend for 1 minute until a smooth paste forms.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Pour the onion-spice mixture into the pan.
- Sauté gently for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken cubes and 1/4 cup golden raisins. Stir-fry for 1 minute until the chicken is lightly browned.
- Add 8 oz cremini mushrooms (sliced), and pour in 1/2 cup of water (or more for a thinner sauce). Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- Remove from heat. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan.
