| 1. Cut chicken breasts into 2 inch cubes, and place in a saucepan with onion, garlic, margarine, stock cubes, salt and pepper and 3 cups of water. | 2. Cook over medium heat for 30 minutes or until done. | 3. Strain solids from broth, retaining broth and solids. | 4. Finely chop the chicken to make the filling. | 5. Add the parsley and chopped green onion to the chicken. | 6. Measure the remaining broth into a saucepan-you will need 3 cups, so make it up with extra water. | 7. Add all the flour, and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon for 1 minute until it becomes stiff. | 8. Turn out, allow to cool a little, but while it is still warm, knead dough until it is smooth and no lumps of flour remain. | 9. (About 10 minutes) Roll out dough to about 1/4 inch thick and cut medium sized circles with a biscuit cutter. | 10. Place the dough in the palm of your hand, place a small cube of cream cheese and a teaspoon of the prepared filling. | 11. Judge the filling to the size of the circle you cut-you have to be able to seal it! | 12. Knead scraps and re-roll, and continue cutting until all the dough is used. | 13. Fold and close the dough in the shape of a drumstick (the word Coxinha means "little drumstick" in Portuguese). | 14. Brush the filled pastries with egg white and roll in breadcrumbs. | 15. Deep-fry the snacks for 8 minutes at 350f or until golden brown. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
