I love this recipe!! Besides being easy, it tastes great. I did add some red pepper flakes as another reviewer suggested and it was perfect.

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."

This is terrific. The fact that it's so simple to make is an added bonus. I wanted lots of sauce so I doubled that part of the recipe and used a T of cornstarch in water to thicken it. I was concerned it might be too sweet but it wasn't at all. I use natural peanut butter though, no sugar. This definitely deserves to be tried by others. It's great over rice.

This recipe is absolutely DELICIOUS. It's been in my "to try"folder for awhile, and I finally made it today. My husband is working this evening, so I made it for our lunch. I did make a change- I don't like onion, so I skipped the first step. Because of that, instead of adding the curry powder to the cooking onion, I just added the curry powder in when I made the honey/peanut butter/stock sauce. I used all 3 teaspoons and definitely recommend that if you enjoy curry (as we do, and can't imagine this recipe without it!!).. the curry made this sauce out of this world. My only other change was to use 1.5 pounds of chicken, and I doubled the sauce (we like to pour lots on our rice). I was worried that (after I doubled) 1/2 cup honey would be very sweet, but when the whole mixture is put over the rice... it's toned down. My 2 year old daughter LOVED this meal. Will most certainly make again (and again). Thanks!

I have to admit I was a bit skeptical while cooking this dish, however, it was amazing! The bistro next door makes a similar dish. I added a bit of crushed red pepper, and I used crunchy peanut butter, which gave the dish a wonderful texture! MMM...MMM...delicous!

This is a great recipe!! I absolutely love savory peanut dishes, and this one was SO easy and yummy! I didn't put curry in because I don't care for curry. I also added a little extra peanut butter and honey. It's great with chunky natural (unsweetened) peanut butter! Next time I think I'll make more sauce (add more broth, PB, and honey) because we loved it over the rice and ended up running out! Thanks for the great yummy, EASY recipe!

This is very good but we did find it very rich. Next time I would add some chilli flakes to bring the heat up slightly. Thanks for sharing.

A whole-hearted 5 stars from me! This was SO yummy and SO easy. I actually was surprised at how much I liked it and how complex the flavors were for having so few ingredients. I followed the recipe exactly until I tasted how good it was and then I had to stretch it a bit more. So I added about 1/4 cup heavy cream (just to have more sauce), then threw in the juice of a half a lime and some chopped cilantro. My 2 1/2 DS loved it too, as did hubby. This will be in our regular rotation from now on, only I'll probably double the recipe so that there's leftovers! Yummy!

I only used 1 teaspoon of curry powder because it is not my favorite. I also doubled the sauce like the others recommended, next time I will not. The sauce tasted great on the chicken but I did not care for it on the rice. If I make this again I will just eat the chicken and get rid of any remaining sauce.
