Tuesday- Green Chicken O'Curry

I hear what you're thinking, "Curry isn't Irish." I realize that, but you can only plan on eating so much meat and cabbage in one week. This is America and I can interpret a holiday however I want! At least it's GREEN!

Adapted from Clean Eating
Chef’s Notes : We have finally done it! SmithCale said it is so! We have recreated authentic curry flavor found in a restaurant at home! I’ll tell you the secret, but you have to promise to not tell anyone. You should just send them to the blog to read it  . The secret: Using a Wok & Wok Oil. Don’t forget when other people ask your secret…I’m watching you! (Not really, I’m too busy working, training, cooking and drinking hot tea).
