Notes
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.
