In a 5-quart slow cooker, toss chicken, onion, garlic, ginger, curry powder, coriander, and cumin to coat. Season with 2 teaspoons salt. Cover, cook on high setting until chicken is fork-tender, about 4 hours (do not uncover while cooking).
Stir in coconut milk and peas; cover, cook until peas are heated through, about 20 minutes.
Transfer chicken to a large bowl; shred with fork. Return to pot; toss with sauce.
To serve, garnish with 1/2 cup toasted cashews and 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, if desired.
