Brazilian Chicken Coxinhas
These Brazilian coxinhas wrap seasoned shredded chicken and cream cheese in a soft dough, shaped into teardrops and fried until crisp.
Coxinha is one of Brazil's most popular street snacks, named for its teardrop shape that is meant to resemble a small chicken leg. The dough is made by cooking flour into the reserved chicken broth until it turns into a smooth, pliable paste, which is what lets it stretch around the filling without cracking. Shape them by hand and do not rush the shaping, since the point is what makes them recognizable.
