    Very Good
    My husband is very verbose about his food likes and dislikes and he says this is a "keeper" recipe!. I added a red bell pepper and low sodium soy sauce. Did not add the peanuts because he doesn't like them. - 1/27/09

    Incredible!
    yummy - My husband and adult son loved it. My son normally doesn't like chicken but enjoyed this spicy hot dish. I will be making it again, I may add a bell pepper next time too. - 11/10/08
