     This is THE best recipe I have found on Spark so far!!! I used rice noodles as my husband and I both do not like pasta. Could eat this every day and not be tired of it. Thanks for sharing your recipe!!! - 10/22/07

     Very good! Really liked the different taste from our usual menus. Added frozen stir fry veggies to help stretch the meal out a bit. Thumbs up from my husband - 1/28/09

     OMG This is fabulous Thai food! There is no place to get Thai where I live and this recipe satisfies my cravings! - 1/17/09

     This is deliious - as good as some restaurants. Next time I will use 1/2 of the soy sauce - even with lo-sodium soy sauce still too much sodium for someone with high blood pressure. Loved the flavor! - 4/16/08
  • GIBSONLADY922
     Very good and very easy to make. Lots of flavor. I eliminated the onion and added carrots, green pepper and bean sprouts to up the veggies. This is a great recipe to take to work for lunch as it's good either hot or cold. - 4/21/09

     I made this tonight, but did not put chicken in it. It was a side dish with pork chops. I also shredded carrot in it, in place of onion since my husband doesn't care for onion. - 1/30/09

     This was a great-tasting and quick meal. I added some white onion sauteed in a tiny bit of sesame oil and a splash of fish sauce, shredded carrots, and julienned cucumber (added separately in the tracker) to bulk up the servings to a generous meal size for 4, and it was great. - 4/13/11

     Wow. What a tasty dish. The next time I make it I am going to add a bit more heat (fresh chili sauce) because I like it a bit more spicy. - 2/27/10
  • SKINNYROBIN100
     This dish must be good, but it has way too much sodium and cutting down the soy is the way to make this more healthful. - 4/3/09
  • SCHATZI4MO
     Yummy - I tripled the recipe for a party of 40 folks. Used it as a side dish and therefore omitted the chicken. Got rave reviews. Why did I shop for anything at Costco?! Everyone loved the SparkRecipes more :) - 1/13/09
  • JANDT1002
     I made this last night and I loved it!!! Great flavor and works well as leftovers for the next day. I added more crushed red pepper (I like it spicy). I also used chicken broth instead of veggie broth. I added some slaw mix to it and that added more veggies to my daily count. - 1/21/09
  • ESTJOHN
     Outstanding meal and simple to make! I will pass this recipe on and continue to make this masterpiece. - 4/2/08
  • ETHELMERZ
     Old recipe, leave out that awful cilantro! You will eat more than one serving. - 7/13/19
  • TLKIELP
     No a big Thai food fan, but this was excellent. Husband loved it, he added extra crushed red peppers to his plate, he loves a little extra heat. He's looking forward to the leftovers for lunch. Will make again for sure. - 8/25/09
  • PIANOMOM33
     I made this for supper tonight & everyone enjoyed it! I used cubed firm tofu instead of chicken, added a little extra lime juice & I used ginger powder instead of fresh ginger. Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. I like the idea of about adding extra veggies ~ I may try that next time. - 7/6/09
  • KRISTALBALL
     INCREDIBLE! I made this as a side dish, so I left out the chicken and paired it with the Thai Chicken Wraps (also AMAZING) as the main dish. My husband was singing my praises all night :) Will definitely be making again and again!

     This was so good!!! One of my friends is allergic to peanuts so when I made hers I used SUNBUTTER, tastes like peanut butter but is made from sunflower seeds.
    So Tasty my girlfriends loved it when I served it at our brunch!!! And my family loved it as well.
