CANAPES WITH CURRY CHICKEN

I know. I had to do the same.

Evidently, canapes are little finger meals, similar to the appetizers provided during a celebration. Typically, these are one-bite, pop-in-the-mouth nibbles. Canapes like these with curry chicken are more like two, three, or four bites. Maybe it depends on how big your mouth is? They are larger than genuine canapes, however. But since alliteration is appealing and memorable, I’m keeping with the title.

But enough with the semantic and linguistic gymnastics. Before we discuss the cuisine, it’s crucial to note that these curry chicken canapes are DELICIOUS! Another word is…easy!

When you cut them, they go from being just an English muffin with toppings to a canape.  However, I simply sliced them in half, so you are welcome to refer to them as large canapés or whatever else.

Ingredients: 4 English muffins;

1/3 cup chopped green onion;

1/3 cup grated cheddar;

1/2 teaspoon each of curry powder, garlic powder,

onion powder, and curry;

1 to 1 12 cups chopped or shredded cooked chicken; and 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons each of curry and garlic powder.

Heat the broiler.
Place the split English muffins face up on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Place for 3–4 minutes in the broiler.
