This is fantastic. It smells so nice when its cooking. Remember to take the seeds out the chillies :)

This is a wonderful recipe. I will cut the limes down by one next time though, as hubby thought the lime overpowered the other tastes. But very very tasty and easy. I am making it again tomorrow.

Hi Shal, glad you liked it. Yes, the limes can be very overpowering...these can certainly be altered to taste, it's just a question of getting the balance right. Regards Kenny.

Hi Kenny - Just thought I would let you know that I did reduce the limes by one and upped the chillies a little - perfect!!! Thanks for sharing this fantastic recipe.

Hi Shal - most excellent! You clearly like your food a bit more spicy. Of course in Thailand the green curry tends to blow your head off. I find that the limes cool it all down a bit without loosing the chili kick. I see from your profile you like curry, chocolate, bread and cake. So come on give me one of your best recipes to try... please :-) - Regards Kenny

MMM, oh Kenny, thankyou! I've been looking for a good thai chicken recipe for ages, this looks amazing. You've clearly gone to a lot of trouble to add the individual ingredients (it annoys me when you simply get "curry powder" in there). Please have a look at my naga recipe, I am starting to grow my own nagas as they may be fiery but they have a very subtle floral overtone too. Will try them in this dish.

Hi Kenny - sorry haven't been on here for a while - Dad in hsopital and I have been running around here, there and everywhere. What sort of recipe would you like?? Cake or chocolate or maybe a chocolate cake? Shal

Sorry the recipe tastes nice but not really authentic. I believe a recipe for Thai Green Curry must include palm sugar, Thai Aubergine/Pea Aubergine and Fish Sauce to taste.

Hi, great recipe! I added a touch of fish sauce, and like someone else said, I'd probably cut out one lime, but my whole family loved it (and so did I).
