We are obsessed with this dish in our house! It was so easy (i’m new to cooking all the time) to make! The smells were amazing.

This was so good! Very easy to make and a great use of pumpkin. I added closer to 1/2 cup to use more of the can. I’ll definitely be making it again!

This was such an easy recipe- very pantry friendly for this quarantine situation too! My family told me they didn’t like curry and after eating this they asked for this recipe to be put in the regular rotation. I added raw spinach at the end as the sauce was simmering and it was delicious!

Best chicken curry recipe I've made to date. We have an old-fashioned leather-bound recipe book where once or twice a year we write by hand a recipe that we really, really, liked.  Just finished putting this one in there. The only thing we did differently was add a few chopped mushrooms 4 or 5 mins after the chicken, and, as per another reviewer, sprinkled some kale in.  FANTASTIC.

Yum!!! Boys out of town tonight so made this with chickpeas. Soooooo good!! Perfect combo. Can't wait until I have the leftovers. Thanks for another great one!!!

Very excited to make this recipe! Do you think it could be made in the instant pot rather than stovetop? I'm planning on doubling it, and am wondering if it would be easier in the instant pot. Thanks!

Delicious. My girls even liked it , I wasn’t sure they would!

I don’t know if I’ve ever left a comment on a recipe blog, but THIS WAS AMAZING. so quick and easy, filling, and probably one of the best chicken curries I’ve made at home 🙏 excited to try more of your recipes!

This dish was extremely easy and super delicious. I highly recommend!!! Especially if you’re dairy free!

I don’t even like curry and I loved this dish! It is so comforting and makes for a great fall recipe.

I was looking for some fall dishes to try and came across this one. I made it for the first time tonight for the fam and we love it. I doubled the recipe with four chicken and extra coconut milk and pumpkin puree, but forgot to double the spices 😄 but it still turned out good. Thanks for giving the recipe!

This was incredible! The spices, creamy coconut milk, and pumpkin created a meld of delicious flavor. Our friends loved it to and we served it with white rice, cauliflower rice, broccoli, and naan. It was a dinner winner and we will be making again soon! Thank you for the recipe!

Easy and delicious! My ideal comfort food and my go-to dinner recipe for serving to guests :)

Made this for my family and everyone loved it! Super simple to make. We did a combo of chicken and chickpeas and loved it!

This is the perfect cozy meal! I love your spicy pumpkin pasta recipe and had some chicken thighs to use, so I switched it up and made this recipe. It was so quick and easy to make, and so good! My husband is now requesting that we add this to our weeknight rotation.

this is easily my favorite meal prep recipe EVER. don’t let “pumpkin” make you believe you can’t eat this year round. and if you don’t even like pumpkin, it is not strong at all! all the flavors are extremely well balanced, and i add even more chili powder because i want it spicy. either way, it’s delicious and quite easy!!!! this recipe made just for myself could last me about 5 dinners, so it’s a good quantity too.

So delicious!  I had leftover pumpkin puree and didn’t know what yo use it for.  This recipe was the perfect solution.  Filling, flavorful and quite easy to make.  The perfect recipe for those of us who need to avoid dairy, gluten snd soy products

This recipe is amazing. I basically never follow recipes to the letter, but I did this time, and it was SO good. My husband is not generally a fan of coconut milk-based curries but the spice combo in this won him over. Gonna start working my way through the Mad About Food back catalogue! Thanks for a new fall staple :)

So delicious! I was hesitant about the cinnamon but it was so so good. Next time I will add veggies in with the chicken. Yum!

This recipe was so good!!! I was nervous at first because there was no Curry powder but it did not disappoint! Gotta trust that you know what you’re doin!

So delicious! Loved by the whole family, even the little ones. Will make this again and again!

Absolutely delicious! My favorite fall recipe that I reallyyy look forward to making each year

Took this to a pumpkin themed potluck for our Church event and it was a hit! Didn’t have any leftovers… which means I have to make some more tomorrow!

Amazing flavor! Easy to make! Had some leftover chicken in the fridge and all ingredients are pantry friendly!

YUM - this sauce is sooo yummy. A great weeknight recipe.. already can’t wait to make it again. Pumpkin makes the sauce so luscious! I added some extra veg to the curry, so also added some extra pumpkin + broth to make sure the ratios were right.

Absolutely DELICIOUS! This is a favorite recipe that I have made several times. I typically make with chicken, but I love to add cauliflower and/or green beans. Then it’s got everything you need for a nutritious meal. I also like crumbled cashews or thin sliced almonds as a garnish when serving.
