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.
  • This taste amazing piping hot. So make and enjoy immediately.
