Nice starter recipe for a person new to Thai cooking (that would be me). I added some curry, deleted the peppers and substituted carrot shreds and bean sprouts (raw, but did stir fry them first). I felt it needed a bit more zip so also added a touch of black pepper. Nice recipe, will make again.

Good and fairly easy to make. I added cilantro and a little Thai Red Curry Paste for added zip.

This was great. I added red pepper flakes and broccoli to the recipe. Will make again for sure!

I am sorry but if this is the kind of dish you get in a Thai restaurant in your area, you are missing out. I did not think it had much flavor and it was not a very traditional Thai style at all.

This is one of my top 5 meals now. Great flavors together. If you love red peppers add a 2nd to the recipe. Wonderful recipe.

My wife and I ate this chicken and it was yummy. The recipe was easy to follow.

This was great! My husband made his own version of yum yum sauce and he said it satisfied his Japenese (very high fat) craving.
