Coxinha da Asa de Frango is a popular Brazilian dish featuring tender chicken wings seasoned, breaded, and fried to golden perfection. This savory finger food is often marinated with garlic, lime, and herbs for its signature flavor, then coated in flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs before frying. Originating from Brazil, it is a favorite at parties and casual gatherings, offering a delicious combination of crisp texture and juicy chicken. While flavorful and satisfying, Coxinha da Asa de Frango is typically deep-fried, making it higher in calories and fats. However, it is a good source of protein from the chicken itself. For a healthier option, baking or air-frying can reduce its fat content while preserving the dish's enjoyable taste and texture. A festive treat, it’s best savored in moderation alongside fresh vegetables or lighter sides.
