06 Sep Curry Chicken (My Baby Watson Bulk Recipe)

My 1980's Bulk Curry Chicken recipe developed for Baby Watson's for distribution to their Boston area Cheesecake, Bakery and sandwich shops. Again, this is a Bulk Recipe. Baby Watson's used this product as an ingredient in their famous Strollers, a Fast Food take-away, eat-on-the-run pita sandwich. This recipe makes enough for about 100 pita sandwiches using 3 to 4 ounces of the recipe per sandwich. Therefore, use the recipe as a guide, because it is doubtful that it scales very well.
