Add chicken pieces. Squeeze out most of the air, seal, and gently massage chicken pieces until coated with marinade. Refrigerate, turning the bag occasionally, for at least 4 hours, and up to overnight. Prepare dipping sauce 1 hour before cooking chicken so flavors will have time to blend. Stir together teriyaki sauce, cashew butter, orange juice, garlic, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Refrigerate, tightly covered, until ready to serve. Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Using a skewer accessory rack, thread chicken pieces on each skewer and place on the rack. Put the rack in the air fryer basket and air fry for 8 minutes. Carefully turn skewers, and continue cooking for an additional 8 minutes. Repeat with remaining chicken. Chicken is done when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle chopped cashews on dipping sauce. Place skewers on rice and serve with dipping sauce. Garnish with cilantro sprigs. Cook's Note Substitute low-sodium soy sauce for coconut aminos, if preferred. Use any nut butter of choice for the dipping sauce. If you do not have a skewer rack, place the chicken pieces in a single layer on the bottom of the air fryer basket. Air fry at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 8 minutes, stir and continue cooking for an additional 8 minutes. Repeat in batches until all the chicken is cooked. Please note that different brands and sizes of air fryers will affect the cooking time and the number of batches.
