Prepare a paste of nuts and cashews by blending in a blender with slight water. Set it aside into a tiny bowl. Next, marinate the chicken with yoghurt, salt, cashew nut paste, spices and cream. Check the marinade for seasoning & adjust salt, if desired.

Step 2) In the mixing vessel, mix the chicken properly with the marinade so that the chicken slices are well coated with it. Then, close the bowl with a clean kitchen cloth or lid & set aside to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4-5 hours.

Step 3) Now, take out the chicken from the fridge. Preheat the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for around five mins & place the wooden skewers in the warm water. Brush slight oil & grill the chicken slices for around twenty-five to thirty mins, till cooked. When the chicken turns succulent & tender, remove it from the skewers. Garnish using kewra essence.
