Skin-and-bones chicken pieces like coxinha and wing can taste even better with sauces. The offer is valid regardless of the method of preparation – deep-fried, air-fried, grilled or in the oven.
In the show “Vai Ter Churras”, host Bruno Salomao shows three simple recipes that go well with chicken. In general, the cooking method is similar: combine the ingredients in a saucepan and thicken the liquid.
Oriental teriyaki soy sauce, seasonings such as garlic and ginger, and sweet ingredients such as pineapple juice and brown sugar. Cornstarch diluted in water produces a thick, dark, sweet sauce that is usually topped with sesame seeds.
