This recipe is amazing! The chicken is so tender and flavorful, and the sauce is to die for. I served it with rice and vegetables, and it was a perfect meal. Thank you for sharing!

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out dry and overcooked. I think I might have cooked it for too long. I'll try again with a lower temperature and a shorter cooking time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by reducing the amount of curry powder. Overall, it was a good recipe and I would recommend it to others.

I wasn't sure about the combination of curry and coconut milk, but I'm glad I gave it a try. The flavors melded together beautifully and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender. I'll definitely be making this again.

This Caribbean-inspired chicken dish was a hit! The curry powder and coconut milk gave it a unique and flavorful twist. I served it with jasmine rice and a side of mango chutney, which complemented the dish perfectly.
