Combine the flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl and stir briefly until the mixture is aerated. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until it’s in pea-size pieces that are slightly yellow in color, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Drizzle in 4 tablespoons of the ice water and mix just until the dough comes together. (Add the last tablespoon of ice water if necessary, but don’t overwork the dough or it’ll become tough.)
Shape the dough into a flat disk, cover it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, then make the pie.


For the chicken filling:
In a pan, brown the onions and garlic.  Add the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes.  Add the corn, tomato paste, spices, tabasco, and the cream cheese.  Mix very well all the ingredients and add the parsley, paprika salt & pepper. Reserve.
