Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the minced garlic and chopped red onion to the skillet, and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.

Add the 1-inch cubes of chicken to the skillet and cook until all sides turn white.

In a small bowl, mix the fish sauce, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, brown sugar, and water to create the sauce.

Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and add the cashews, stirring well to coat the chicken and cashews evenly.

Add the roughly chopped Thai basil and lemon basil leaves to the skillet, and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.

Turn off the heat and let the dish rest for a minute to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve the Basil-Infused Cashew Chicken Skillet over cooked rice.
