    Very Good
    I made this to bring for lunches. When it finished cooking, I had to taste it and didn't want to wait until lunch. Excellent! - 5/8/11

    Incredible!
    One of my now favorite meals! I added ~1/4 cup water to keep it moist (didn't have greek yogurt on hand) and used 1/2 tsp ginger because it was ground. I am a big fan of Thai peanut sauce and salsa separately, so this tastes AMAZING! I served it over brown rice and used medium/hot salsa for a kick. - 1/31/11

    I tried this recipe today, and I was pretty skeptical based on the peanut butter, salsa, soy sauce combination, but I thought I would give it a try. I did make some adaptations, I added red pepper flakes for heat and chicken broth for moist meat and it was GREAT! I also Cooked noodles to go with. - 1/13/11

    This was good, but a little dry. I added a dollop of plain Greek yogurt to the finished product, and it was to die for! Thanks for the recipe! - 9/13/10
