👨🍳 Instruções

For the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix. Form into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

For the filling: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and bell pepper and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Add ground chicken to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Ensure chicken is fully cooked and no pink remains. - 6
Stir in tomato paste, chicken broth, thyme, minced scotch bonnet pepper, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut out circles using a 5-6 inch round cutter.

Place a generous spoonful of the cooled chicken filling onto one half of each dough circle, leaving a border. Moisten the edges of the dough with water.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Don't overfill, or they will be difficult to seal. - 11
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Crimp the edges firmly with a fork to seal.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: A good seal prevents filling from leaking out during baking. - 12
Place the Pâté Kòtè on the prepared baking sheets. Cut a small vent in the top of each turnover with a knife.

Brush the tops of the turnovers with the beaten egg wash.
