    I thought this was great! I just used regular corn tortillas, and didn't bother with the peanut relish since I'm a busy mom, and don't need to impress kids: the whole family enjoyed them- I didn't even bother to baste the taco shell with the peanut oil- tasted same and figured less calories, my kids thought it was easier to eat the curry sauce inside the taco like a "salsa" it was great, we will definitely add this to our regular repertoire!! Thanks! PS I prepped everything earlier on- threw the meat on the GF so all you had to do was assemble- which made it not very time intensive:

    Absolutely delicious. Time intensive, but totally worth it. Curry-Peanut sauce is a nice change from the usual taco combos.

    After reading all the other reviews I used only a half cup of soy sauce and let the chicken sit in the marinade for half the time.

    Sauce: I used the juice of a full lime,added extra cilantro and added extra chili.
    I also used chicken thighs instead,with the salt issue I glazed the skin with honey to take some of that salt taste away and make it a little sweet which worked very well and made the skin crisp very nicely under the grill.I would not use this recipe for tacos I would just serve it with rice.

    The soy/ginger marinade for the chicken was excellent. I marinated for about 2 1/2 hrs and it was perfect. The other reviewers are right, this needs to more salt! I did not care for the curry peanut sauce, I think the coconut milk ruined was too much. I would make the pepper and ginger chicken again, however.

    I love this recipe, i've made it about a dozen times with the chicken and most recently made it with Elk tenderloin and it was fantastic! Agreed a bit salt, but just cut down on on the time, or use low sodium Soy like I do.

    Super salty. Too much soy sauce in the marinade overpowers all the other stuff, and the cheese is a weird combination with the other Thai ingredients.

    I marinated the chicken and made the peanut sauce and served over Jasmine rice instead of making the actual tacos, but the chicken was unbearably salty. I marinated it for under 4 hours, and if I realized how much salt from the soy sauce the chicken was going to absorb, I would not have marinated it as long. Instead of peanut oil, I used chili oil, which gave the sauce a nice flavor. I would make the sauce again, but I wouldn't marinate the chicken as long. All you taste is salt from the soy sauce.

    I made this dish for my family and everyone loved it. I used low sodium soy sauce and omitted all extra salt. Will definitely be making this again.

    Too many different styles/flavors in one dish for my taste.
