Story

Don't skimp on the curry when you make these chicken appetizers. The toasted coconut and curry combination is what really makes these treats stand out. Be sure to cut your chicken up fine, shredding it a little. You don't want to bite into a big chunk of chicken. You want, instead, to bite into a nice, creamy mixture of all the flavors infusing the chicken. Enjoy!
