Delicious! I followed the recipe exactly, but I decided to BBQ the chicken. I boiled the remaining marinade into a sauce and served it over the BBQ chicken. Turned out really well. Served with rice, and sliced avacado and tomato. Will be making this one again very soon!

This has fantastic flavor and was fairly easy to make as well. My picky, spice-loving in-laws will really like this! Lots of flavor, and kind of an unusual combination of flavors!

This was great, I made a few changes to suit what I had though. No peppers so I used chili pepper flakes as well as extra coconut milk and some chicken stock. I then boiled or poached the chicken in the liquid for 20 minutes (I used the breast) and broiled it in the oven for an additional 10. I reduced the sauce and added a little extra sugar. My boyfriend adored the sauce and I will definitely be making this again.

This is fabulous. I modified it a little- added some scallions and a little more ginger, and I used lime juice instead of zest, and I used dried cilantro instead of fresh. I also added more coconut milk. It was fantastic. Tastes just like it came from a restaurant. Everyone loved it, even my picky boyfriend.

Made this last night and loved it! My only complaint is that the sauce had a very strong ginger taste. I'll be using a tablespoon of ginger next time.

Yummy! I could almost drink this marinade. I used only one serrano chile because of my husband and 2 year old. It was still quite spicy, but all three of us loved it. I am definitely going to try the marinade on shrimp and maybe tofu.

Yum! This was good, but next time, I'll add more lime or peppers (or something) to give it more of a kick.

I have to agree with the previous reviewer - the lime/cilantro sauce gets pretty nasty, especially after you have simmered it for 5 mins. I managed to salvage the dish by adding some heavy cream (which, unfortunately, diluted the coconut flavor), and also snipping some fresh cilantro over it before serving (which, Husband said, made it a 4 star recipe) but I would not make this again. Thanks, anyhoo.

As excited as I was to try this I was equally disappointed. After reading the reviews I decided to marinate overnight which did give the chicken an infused cilantro flavor but the sauce - just throw it out, trust me, it was bitter and beyond saving. We did save the chicken (which cooked beautifully under the broiler by the way) by adding a little butter and salt after placing atop white rice. My boyfriend said don't bother trying this one again and I agree, he did eat it but... I've had much better success with Cilantro Lime chicken by just marinating chicken in 1/4c olive oil, 1/4 cup fresh lime juice & cilantro (chopped handful) overnight then grilling. You could always add chopped serranos for a kick.

We loved this! It was as good as one of our favorite dishes at a Thai restaurant. No changes, except I used lime juice (instead of zest) and I baked it instead of broiled (30 minutes at 350) - delicious!!!

This was good and easy. I didn't have sorreno peppers, so I used jalapenos. The taste was mild, but good. I will make this again.

I am not sure if I bought the wrong kind of coconut milk, but this was not good at all. I would not make it again.

This was a big hit! My son said that he thought all of the different flavors in the sauce were going to be "weird", but they went together really well.

I tried this recipe with 8 thighs too. I doubled everything for the sauce except the sugar because I like gravy and so did my guests. It was GREAT. It is so easy because you can throw all the ingredients in the processor rather than chop it by hand. I was running out of time to grate the lime zest, so instead a squeezed the juice from one lime into the sauce - it was really quite good. My guests and my husband RAVED about it. Also, my broiler doesn't work, so I baked the chicken at 350 for about 30 min. after marinating (but boiling the sauce separately as the recipe indicates).

Really good recipe. I marinated 8 boneless chicken thighs, instead of just 4. Then, at the end, I added 1/4 cup of coconut milk and 1/4 tsp of soy sauce to the simmering sauce. I will make this again. Thanks!
