- 4 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, roughly chopped
- ¼ cup raw cashews
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tbsp ground almonds (almond flour)
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp garam masala
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- ¼ tsp ground cardamom
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper

Instructions
- 1
Season the chicken pieces with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Heat the oil or ghee in a large (12-inch) skillet or wide saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- 2
Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, for 3–4 minutes until the undersides are golden. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until lightly browned on the second side — the chicken will not be cooked through at this point. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
