Made this last week. Used button mushrooms instead of shitiake and light coconut milk. My BF enjoyed it, but I found it to be OK. I would add more spice next time, probably some jalapenos or some cayanne pepper.

Really liked this recipe - made as is, aside from had to substitute ginger powder for fresh as I didn't have any. Husband went back for seconds :) Will make again.

I enjoyed this dish, but I'm not sure that it's something I want to make again. I thought it was a little bitter so I added about 2 Tbsp of sugar, which helped a lot.

Very tasty dish! Absolutely enjoyed this dish very much. I used lite coconut milk, button mushrooms and thai basil instead. Otherwise, stuck very closely to the recipe. A keeper for sure!

Too salty! Like some of the other reviewers said, the saltiness drowns out the flavor of the coconut and the vegetables. All I could taste was chicken, basil, and salt. I will not be making this again.

This was very yummy dish. I used chicken thigh instead of breast since I like it better. Next time, I think I'd put more onion.

Improvements - used whole can of coconut milk (not just 3/4 cup), more soy and fish sauce (about a teaspoon more of each), 4 tablespoons of sugar (really balances the heat), added water chestnuts, more shiitake, added the sauce before chicken was browned (why dry it out before getting that good flavor in it?) and added cashews (love the taste with coconut milk). With these additions I loved it. Really tastes like the good Thai restaurant dish, yum...
