Add the onions and cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes. Add the chicken, garlic, ginger, serrano chile and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and just cooked through, about 10 minutes.Stir in 1/4 cup of the coconut milk and the water, then cover and cook over low heat for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the cashews and cook over moderate heat stirring constantly, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of coconut milk and the lemon juice to the chicken and simmer, stirring. Transfer to a bowl, sprinkle with the cashews; serve hot.
