[Foggy morning]

DiAnne, I was wondering about the hot curry so I have ordered a mild Madras curry in a Amazon order. I'm enjoying the siriacha already though, even on top of a hard boiled egg. It's good stuff! I probably won't be making this recipe for a few more days. My dog recently underwent surgery and has just started chemotherapy and will be in a clinical trial for a new drug. Things are a bit unsettled here right now but it's good to have this recipe to look forward to!

ambermoon - I hope your dog is OK. What kind of dog do you have?

I made this again on Friday and added 1 T of currants to it. Good addition.

DiAnne, we had this for dinner last night and we totally enjoyed it! I had forgotten how good curry is. I have a recipe that I've had for years and I'm going to fix it now soon. Basically you add some curry to rice as it cooks, some curry to cream of shrimp soup as it heats, serve in individual bowls with condiments of bacon, scallion, chutney, raisins and coconut. I think currents would be great with the Madras chicken. I love the blend of the flavors. My dog is doing good. She's being pampered and is enjoying her cooked chicken. She's a golden retriever and is quite a trooper.

Interesting! I made a very similar recipe last month and it was good, but I found it a little too sweet and not spicy enough. My recipe didn't call for Sriracha and used chicken broth instead of the half-and-halfm but the ingredients were otherwise identical. I don't have any Sriracha in the house, but I'll have to pick some up and give this recipe another try. Mine was done in a slow cooker.

I had a golden that I had to put down about 4 years ago. He had prostate cancer. Vet said goldens are prone to cancer. He was 16 years old so we did not do chemo, etc. They are the sweetest dogs.

Glad you enjoyed it. I am continuing my quest for new recipes using rotisserie chicken.

DiAnne, sorry to hear about your golden. They're so sweet. Mine had bone cancer and the clinical part of her treatment has to do with the metastasis. The bone cancer is common in dogs (mostly large breed ones) and people. We have our fingers crossed for her and others. I have made enchiladas with rotisserie chicken that were very good. Good luck in your quest!

I make a similar curry but instead of using half and half, I make it with coconut milk. I usually get the "lite" coconut milk to cut down on the calories. It's still plenty rich and I like the taste of coconut milk in curry. I also like to add a ton of vegetables, depending on what is available--snap peas, carrots, onions, red bell peppers, and such. Often I just make it vegetarian as we enjoy a lot of meatless meals.

Vamp - I will have to try it with coconut milk as I usually have a can in the pantry - 1/2 and 1/2 I have to buy special to make this! Thanks for the suggestion.
