Chicken Larb? Sounds funny, but it is actually quite good! Use any type of curry sauce you like, we used mild curry sauce because it was what we had on hand, and it had good curry flavor without any heat. In consideration of time, we used ground turkey meat, which may have had more fat (dark meat), so we look forward to trying it with chicken breast. We served it on tortilla shells so the kids would eat it, and we all really enjoyed it! Found on Cooking Light's web site.
