Tips & Tricks

• I used bone-in chicken. But boneless chicken is preferred.
• Instead of cashew powder. You can add badam powder as well.
• I blend my cashews in a blender jar for few seconds till it is powdered.
• Green chillies sauted in butter adds so much flavour. So add as much as you want.
• This dish gets it taste from garlic. So feel free to add as much garlic as you want.

Serving & Storage Suggestions

• Japan chicken taste great with plain white rice, but you can serve with fried rice, noodles or as an appetiser.
