  1. very good ratio of sweet & salty. I used used about 3/4 of broth and added few squeezes of sriracha and served with brocolli.
     
  2. AMAZING!!!!! My picky 8 year old LOVED this recipe! She said this was the best chicken she's ever eaten! I used 2 tsp of curry powder and it had a nice zing to it. Other then that, no changes to the recipe.
     
  3. Loved this one, although the DH thought a bit spicy (I used full curry powder and some red pepper flakes as suggested by another reviewer). It was DEEElish, and will make again. Thanks for posting!
     
  4. Holy crap this is GOOD!!! seriously...beyond outstanding and sooooo easy to make it's ridiculous. i used about a 1/4 cup of onion, and 4 breasts...we like sauce, so i put in approx 1/2c of peanut butter, 1 c of broth and about 1/4 c of honey (i would have put in more, but that was literally all i had). i DID use 3 tsp of the curry and the flavor was awesome. the last addition for me was about a 1/4 tsp of Frank's Hot Sauce for that red pepper heat. that added just a tiny bit of kick without changing the flavors...YUM! i let the dish simmer on low for about 20-25 minutes while i waited for the rice to cook, this made the chicken incredibly tender. then, right at the end of cooking time, i added about a 1/4 c of heavy cream...wow! boyfriend and i LOVE this dish...will mos def stay in the rotation. THANK YOU!!
     
  5. I just made this my husband and I loved it. Used 3 tbs curry loved it in England while stationed there love it still. Used splenda instead of honey to drop the carbs and Brown rice. Will try some red pepper flakes for some heat next time. Love it saved it shared it...

  1. This was amazing! It was quick and easy to make but tasted like so much time went into it. It was no more work than any average weeknight meal but seemed like something I'd spend hours preparing for a dinner with friends. I also doubled the sauce recipe (using 1.5 lbs of chicken breasts) and was glad I did. The only other changes I made were to substitute shallots for the onion and I had to use water instead of stock (thought I had some but didn't!). It tasted fine to us but I do think I'll use actual stock next time. And there will certainly be many next times- DH paid this recipe his highest compliments as we ate: "Let's definitely add this to the rotation."
