Delicious Curried Manapua Puffs

These Hawaiian-inspired puffs are stuffed with a curry chicken mixture. They’re always a hit at potlucks and parties, and I’m constantly being asked for the recipe. It’s so flexible — try using different types of meats and vegetables. You may need to cook the puffs in several batches, as this make a lot.

  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet.
  3. Leaving about 2 inches between each biscuit, flatten biscuit dough onto the baking sheet. Place approximately 1 teaspoon of the chicken mixture onto each biscuit, then pinch the dough around the mixture to form an encasing ball.
