This had a really nice flavour. I did add some garlic as well. I found the peanut butter mix tended to harden on the chicken though. I added some milk to thin it out for a sauce. It worked quite well. Good recipe.

I was disappointed with this. The sauce tasted wonderful, but it wound up being more of a paste. So instead of having peanut-butter-&-ginger-flavored chicken, I wound up with chicken-flavored chicken and some yummy stuff perched on top. (I have to add that the kids didn't like the "yummy stuff" at all, but I didn't let that affect my rating, because they don't like anything.)
