Mix all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and chicken seasoning in a bowl.

Cut in unsalted butter until well incorporated.

Gradually add room temperature water until a non-sticky dough forms, working it for about 2 to 3 minutes.

Form the dough into a ball and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

Brown the sausage in a pan and set aside.

In the same pan, heat oil and cook for about a minute.

Add tomato paste and cook to remove the raw taste.

Add bell pepper, onion, and a little scotch bonnet pepper; cook until soft.

Add boiled and shredded haon, season with onion powder, black pepper, garlic powder, and adobo seasoning.

Add a little water to prevent the filling from being too dry, then add back the sausage and squeeze fresh lime juice.

Cut the rested dough into four pieces and roll out on a floured surface.

Add filling to the rolled dough, seal the edges by pressing with a fork, and remove excess dough.

Deep fry the patties until golden brown.
