Ingredients:

Serving

1 (4 lb) roasting chickens, cut into 6 pieces (or 3-1/2 to 4 lb. chicken pieces)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp ghee , clarified butter or 2 tbsp butter and oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 -2 serrano chilies or 3 small jalapenos, cored, seeded, and finely chopped
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh ginger
1 1/2 tbsp curry powder
3/4 cup chicken stock
1 cup coconut milk (canned is fine )
1/3 cup roasted cashew halves
3 tbsp coarsely chopped cilantro leaves

Directions:

Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook it in the ghee in a large skillet over medium heat on the skin side to brown it and to render the fat from the skin, about 15 minute Turn the chicken over and cook on the bone side for about 5 minute Remove the chicken from the pan and reserve.
Pour all but 2 Tbs. of the fat out of the pan and stir in the onion, garlic, chiles, and ginger. Cook over medium heat while stirring frequently until the onion lightly caramelizes, about 15 minute Add the curry powder and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minute.
Add the chicken stock to the pan, scraping up any browned bits, and return the chicken pieces to the pan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, until the chicken is firm to the touch and cooked through, 20 to 25 minute Add the coconut milk, simmer until thickened (3 to 5 min.), and remove from the heat. Transfer the chicken to shallow serving bowls, spoon the sauce over, and sprinkle with the chopped cashews and cilantro.
