Chicken Thighs with Lime and Curry

ChrisMc's Note:

The lime and cilantro and a very fresh taste to this curry. I like it served over rice. A wok works well to make this in (of course, I think a wok works well to make everything in).

Great meal! Such a tribute to my favorite part of the chicken. If this recipe had the words "boneless, skinless chicken breasts", I wouldn't have given it a second glance.

This really is very fresh tasting as Chris says. I love cilantro and lime so this really suited our tastes. The only change we made to the recipe was to add a piece of fresh ginger root (it needed to be used!). The recipe is easy to make and we had all the ingredients on hand-apart from the chicken and the lime-which I really appreciate. This recipe will get made again and again.

What a great dish !!! I loved the flavor of the lime and curry... was so unique .. I would recommend this dish as a "go to".. it certainly will be for me!! I paired this with couscous that was mixed with garbanzo beans, zuccini, and a bit more curry powder.. was YUMMY!
Oh.. I want to add.. I simmered this down for probably an hour on low heat.. kept adding more chicken stock and occasionally a squirt of lime juice.. the cilantro and sour cream are a MUST .. what a great sauce it made!!
