Steps:
- Cut chicken into 1-inch chunks; season with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until light golden and almost cooked through, about 4 minutes. Stir in cashews and cook 1 minute more. Transfer mixture to a plate.
- Add remaining tablespoon oil to pot. Stir in onions and jalapeño and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until onions are slightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in barley and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 1 minute more. Add enough water to coconut milk to yield 2 cups liquid and add to pot. Bring liquid to a simmer, then cook, covered, over low heat until the barley is almost tender, about 40 minutes.
- Stir in corn. If mixture looks dry, stir in 1 1/4 cups more water; cover and cook until barley and corn are tender, 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Return chicken mixture to pot and stir well. Fold in herbs and more salt to taste.

[email protected]I wasn't a fan of the coconut barley pilaf. It was a bit too heavy and dense for my taste. However, the chicken, corn, and cashews were delicious. I think I'll try making this recipe again with a different type of grain.

[email protected]This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The coconut barley pilaf was a bit too dry and the chicken was a bit overcooked. I think it could have used more seasoning or a sauce.
