Coxinha is a popular Brazilian snack made from dough filled with shredded chicken. The dough is typically made from wheat flour, butter, and chicken broth, giving it a rich flavor. Once filled, the dough is shaped like a teardrop, resembling a chicken drumstick, and then breaded and deep-fried until golden brown. This savory treat is often served at parties, street fairs, and as a snack in cafes across Brazil. Coxinha can also be found in various adaptations, including vegetarian versions that use different fillings, making it a versatile option for many palates.
