Coxinha is a beloved Brazilian snack made by filling a soft dough (made from flour and chicken broth) with shredded seasoned chicken, sometimes mixed with cream cheese (catupiry), then forming it into a teardrop shape, breading, and deep-frying it to golden perfection. Crispy outside and creamy inside, coxinhas are popular at birthday parties, street food stalls, and bakeries across the country.

Originating in São Paulo, coxinha is as essential to Brazilian snacking as empanadas are to Argentina — and it pairs perfectly with ketchup, hot sauce, or nothing at all.
