15 Reviews of Spicy Chicken Thighs

You couldn't ask for an easier recipe--which I love. Also, the chicken turned out extremely moist and tender with an excellent spicy flavor. I also love that it is low in fat, too. This went over well with my family, so--what more could a busy mom want?? Thanks for sharing this recipe, Barb. You've got some really great ones.

    Mmmmm, very yummy chicken. I used breasts as I didn't have any thighs. The yoghurt made the chicken very tender but separated during cooking which gave the saucy a bit of a grainy appearance but it still tasted great! Thanks for a tasty and low-fat meal.

    I made this for my husband and I (trying hard to drop the fat content in our meals) We found this dish very tasty and looked great too. I used a medium salsa. Will make this again.

    Barb, these were so yummy! We had them on a cozy Sunday night! The house smelled great while I cooked them, and they tasted just as good. These are such a good easy way to get a "curry" fix, without having to do all the work of making curry pastes, and spice mixtures! A couple of notes: if you double the recipe and the chicken is crowded in the pan (like I did), they will need to cook about 1/2 hour more. And, I added about 1 tbsp of sugar to the marinade because I like how it cuts the sort of sourness of the yogurt. I also added about 2 tsp of red pepper flakes (to the doubled recipe), cuz my salsa was only medium. SO, thank you again, this was lovely and I will be passing this on to my friends and family.

    These were very good, but I have to admit they did not quite meet the expectations I had from reading other reviews. I used 1/3 c salsa instead of 1/4 c, and I'm glad I did as my only complaint with the recipe is that it needs more "kick". I used medium salsa; next time I will use hot or I will add 1/4-1/2 t cayenne to the marinade. As it is I sprinkled some on my serving and it made all the difference, adding that subtle warmth I expect from a curry dish. Otherwise this was good; the texture of the meat was nice and you can't beat the ease of prep. Thanks for posting, this will be a fun one to play with! I served this with couscous pilaf and steamed veggies.

    A new favorite! I love this chicken recipe! I made it with boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead of thighs. Then I cut it into bite size pieces and added halved, black seedless grapes and served on whole wheat toasted bread. This recipe made a perfect curry chicken salad sandwich. Thank you for a great addition to my collection.

    I loved the flavor and the presentation when I served it. Yogurt is so nice to work with as a base for a sauce or coating this is an excellent example. The spices blended and added flavor but did not overwhelm the chicken. Thanks Barb for another tasty recipe

    Family liked it a lot! Instead of yogurt I used sour cream and I also used a peach salsa. I think I should have added salt since my salsa was sweet. It was very nice. Thanks!

    Enjoyed this even though I'm not a fan of chicken thighs. Has a nice flavor and heat.
