  1. This was a delicious recipe. I lightened it up a little by using only skinless chicken breast and fat free sour cream. You could not tell that it was light as the spices filled in for the fat. Great recipe Josh.
     
  2. Adding cilantro and maybe a bit of cardamom and/or coriander would compliment. Cooking time for crockpot wasn't clear.
     
  3. Pretty good overall; perhaps a bit spicy for my taste. I was looking for something a bit more creamy. This recipe wasn't too difficult, and I ended up getting several meals out of it. It's good over chicken flavored rice (like Rice-A-Roni) as well as plain.
     
  4. I wasn't a fan of this. It lacked something... The curries I've had in the past were rich and flavorful but this was flat and bland.
     
  5. This recipe didn't have much in the way of flavor. I found I needed to add a lot more curry powder & pepper flakes at the end to at least bring the sauce up to par. However, this spice had not penetrated the chicken. VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!!
