  2. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 ½ tablespoons butter.

  4. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
  5. Add remaining butter to skillet. Add shallot and garlic and sauté 3 to 4 minutes. Add cashews and remaining spices and continue to sauté for an additional 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
