I had to modify the recipe slightly due to ingredient availability, but my 2 year old is now asking for 4ths.

Love peanut butter? You will love this recipe. It is a favorite to put on pasta at our house. Homegrown canned tomatoes make this recipe even more fragrant.

As a peanut butter lover, I found this recipe disappointing. I thought there was too much sauce and that it was not terribly flavorful, my husband didn't care for combining the the peanut butter with tomato and onions and my son just thought it was gross! It needs modification but I'm not sure what. I will not make this one again.

I modified this slightly, since I was trying to use up some produce before it went bad, and it worked out perfectly. First, in addition to one onion, I used 4-5 cloves of garlic, minced. Not only did it smell wonderful, but it gave a subtle yet present garlic twist to the end. Secondly, I omitted the can of diced tomatoes and the red pepper flakes, deciding instead to double the broth to 1-1/2 cups, so as to not lose the moisture that would've been provided by the tomato juice, and use 2 tablespoons of fresh minced ginger. Oh, and I chose to use shiitake mushrooms--definitely more flavourful than most options! Also, if you choose to use additional peanut butter, the sauce will get thick enough to where it can be served on tortillas, which made taking leftovers to work a breeze! Definitely a great base recipe, will be using again in the near future.

I was really craving some good peanut butter chicken, and was excited to eat this. I did change it, though. I didn't have the diced tomatoes or mushrooms, so i had no choice to leave it out. afterwards, I did add garlic, with a smidge of honey and soy sauce. It was really yummy and great with fried rice. Next time though, I want to try it with the mushrooms and tomatoes, because I did find the peanut butter taste overwhelming. I strongly recommend another reviewer's advice to add the peanut butter a little at a time, tasting it until you're happy.

this was pretty good and really easy to make. if you're looking for something relatively fast for dinner this would be a good way to go. i did add more crushed red pepper flakes which barely spiced it up(i'm swedish, so if i'm adding more you know its not that spicy:)). i only gave it three stars b/c it has to be amazing to get four stars out of me, but with a few more changes i'd make this again.
