Season the chicken with a chicken maggie cube and prepare the ingredients.

Heat 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil in a pot over medium-low heat.

Add the seasoned chicken to the pot and sauté for about 5-10 minutes to sweat the meat.

Add water to the pot, enough to cover the chicken, and continue to add water as it dries up, cooking for about 1 to 1.5 hours until the chicken is tender.

Once the chicken is almost cooked, add 16 ounces of water for the final cooking phase.

After 30 minutes, add raw cashews to the pot to cook with the chicken.

Stir in tomato paste for color and mix until dissolved, adding more water if necessary for the sauce.

Add 4 cups of water for the gravy and season with 2 tablespoons of chicken bouillon cube and sour orange juice or lime juice.

Incorporate 3 tablespoons of Lily butter and let it boil for 5-10 minutes to thicken the sauce.

Finish by adding a small amount of onions for flavor.
