Notes

  • Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
  • Green curry paste - Look for quality brands like Maesri or Mae Ploy at Amazon if not making your own Thai green curry paste.
  • Stir-fry over high heat and at a quick pace, make sure you don't overcook the chicken or the vegetables. Tender chicken and crisp vegetables are the way to go.
