    This recipe is so incredibly easy! My entire family loves it and I have kids 5,8,and 13 who never agree on anything. I serve it ontop of basmati rice, which really adds to the dish, and a side vegetable. Thanks fro a recipe I can make when I only have half an hour or just don't feel like cooking a big to do.

    This is a wonderful recipe, and it's soo easy! I made mine sans the herbs and soy sauce, and it was delish! The curry sauce is light and creamy, but not too spicy. The chicken is sooooo moist, contrary to what I thought it might turn out to be! "Yum-o"... try this one!

    I wish I had read the reviews before I made this tonight! The 3 minutes is WAY too much for the oil and curry-- 2 or 1 and a half would have been plenty. I used Thai green curry. I also think 2 cans of coconut milk is too much. I added 8 oz of fresh mushrooms when the herbs went in and it was great. The other thing I will add next time is some brown sugar-- a bit of sweetness is great with the hot/heat, and some of my favorite curry recipes include it.

    I made this a while ago. I didn't really care for it. It took much longer than the recommended time to cook & I wasn't crazy about the consistency or taste.

    This is a very good dish and I will make it again. I do, however, wish to reiterate some points made in previous reviews.
    1. I used less than one TBS of curry paste and it was still very spicy.
    2. Do not cook the curry and oil on high for 3 minutes! I stopped the microwave after only two minutes because it was burning and the kitchen was filled with noxious fumes! I started over and cooked it on 80% power for 2 minutes. It was perfect.
    3. I used only one can of coconut milk and it was still soupy.

    But honest, I really did like it!

    Easy dish to make, tastes like right of a fancy Indian Restaurant.

    I made this, the first time, out of sheer curiousity. I used a little less curry paste and increased the cooking time (to suit our old, slow microwave. Both my husband and I were pleasantly surprised at how tender the chicken was. The leftovers disappeared at a faster-than-normal rate, which is a clue to how much we love it!

    We sort of memorized the recipe and tried to make it in our vacation condo in Hawaii. Alas, this involved many condiment purchases - but the result was oohed and aahed over by the staff (that's another story.

    Excellent work, George!

    Nothing have tried anything with curry in it, I was a little hesitant but I am glad I tried it. I doubled the recipe as we have a large family. The chicken was so juicy considering it was made in the microwave. Our whole family really enjoyed it. Even my mother-in-law who hates microwaved food loved this dish. I have 2 recommendations for this recipe:
    If you don't like spicy food, you might consider a little less curry paste. This dish was a little spicy for our family but still good!
    I think there was too much coconut milk, it was very soupy. I will use less next time because I like a thicker consistency.
    Otherwise, it was a great recipe. Took 20 minutes start to finish and everyone enjoyed it. Thanks George!!!!

    I made only half the recipe as I was only cooking for myself. I cooked the curry paste with olive oil for 1 and a half minutes, which was good because it just was starting to burn. I used chicken tenderloin and I can't believe how tender it turned out. It was very flavorful. I just wish that the gravy was a bit thicker. Excellent recipe overall.
