This national dish of Haiti perfectly marries the toasted, nutty flavors of cashews with tender braised chicken. Served with a side of fluffy white rice and sweet plantains, Chef Nahika's version features braised chicken thighs that have been marinated in epis, a Haitian seasoning blend made of fresh herbs, onions, garlic, and sweet and spicy peppers.
