Thanks for another great recipe. I too left out the curry but only because I didn't have any LOL I also grated a little parmesan cheese over it. Served to friends who went home with the copy I had printed out. Cheers JenT :)

Made this two nights ago after frantically trying to find out how to feed four people with four chicken breast halves and a couple potatoes, plus miscellanious ingredients on hand. Used a cup half&half and a bit of heavy whipping cream instead of the light cream, and Italian-flavored breadcrumbs that I usually put in meatloaf. It came out wonderful, the whole house liked it, the meat was incredibly moist and tender and it went great with mashed potatoes! Will definitely be making this again.

This produced incredibly moist chicken. It was quite easy to prepare, with ingredients commonly on hand (I left out the curry though; hubby's preference). The only problem I had has nothing to do with the recipe; someone, either as a joke or a mistake, sold me cayenne pepper masquerading as paprika! The end result was a chicken dish too hot for my husband to eat, and almost too hot for me. Imagine--a full tsp of cayenne in this rich creamy dish! But it was so good otherwise that it thoroughly deserves this 5* rating. I can't wait to make it again--with paprika!

My husband and I really enjoyed this dish. The chicken was moist and flavorful. Thanks for the recipe.

This recipe is great. It is quick and easy. The chicken stays so moist and the sauce has nice, subtle Indian flavors. This is a great dish to make when you want the curry flavor, but are short on time. I usually make 1 1/2 batches of sauce. Doubled sauce seems to be too much, much we like more than a single batch. I serve this over rice and with a quick version of flat bread. (mix one package of pizza crust, divide into 3-4 balls and roll out lightly. Brown on both sides over high heat, in a non-stick skillet.) Terrific meal
