What a delicious dish...it was on the sweet side but did have a touch of sour with the oj...loved the slight heat of the curry...but what I enjoyed the most was the easy quick preparation of the dish...I served it with some baked sweet potatoes and peas...I used chicken tenderloins and cut the recipe down to 2 servings...Made for Spring 2014 PAC...=)

I'm beginning to think I should have grown up in the South, 'cause as unusual as this was for me to make, it IS really delicious! Loved the combo of brown sugar & OJ! I'll be making this one again, for sure! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's Pick A Chef event]
