1

Squish 1 Maggie cube into a bowl.

2

Add 1 cup of water to the bowl and microwave for 1 minute to dissolve the Maggie cube.

3

Add 2 more cups of water and 2 teaspoons of salt to the bowl.

4

In a large bowl, add 4 cups of all-purpose flour.

5

Add 1 room-temperature egg to the flour and mix together.

6

Add 4 tablespoons of room-temperature butter to the flour mixture and mix well.

7

Start adding the flavored water gradually while mixing the dough, being careful not to add too much at once.

8

If too much water is added, add more flour to adjust the consistency.

9

Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it's not sticky and forms a ball.

10

Place the dough back in the bowl, add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil on top, and cover with aluminum foil.

11

Refrigerate the dough for 24 hours or at least 4 hours.

12

Clean 2 chicken quarters by removing the skin and excess fat.

13

Wash the chicken with 1 lime, add 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sour orange, 1/4 cup distilled vinegar, and 1/4 cup lemon juice, and mix together.

14

Let the chicken sit for 10-15 minutes, then pour hot water over it to clean further.

15

Rinse the chicken with clean water to remove excess fat.

16

Add 1/2 cup of a piece to the cleaned chicken, along with 1 chicken flavor Maggie cube, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon Creole seasoning, and stir to combine.

17

Cook the chicken on the stove until it starts to simmer, then add 1 tablespoon of oil.

18

Once the water reduces, add 2 cups of water and let the chicken boil until cooked.

19

Let the chicken cool for 15-20 minutes before removing the meat from the bones.

20

Chop up bell peppers (green and yellow) and 1 whole onion, and half a tomato.

21

Boil 1 egg for the filling, adjusting the number based on how many patties you want to make.

22
