This was good! The curry and the peanut butter make a great Asian - Middle Eastern taste, and the lime juice really brings accentuates the individual components of this dish. I am thinking that the chicken should be undercooked or even raw if it's diced and to be cooked for 7 minutes to avoid over cooking it. I regular yogurt, as it was all I had, and just added a bit of water to thin it out. Thanks for a tasty dish!
