This London restaurant is offering a spicy chicken donut. Brazilian barbecue joint Cabana, which has locations across England, offers Spicy Malagueta Chicken Donuts, which are a gluten-friendly cheesy dough ball snack you can enjoy at any time of the day.
Available at all their locations including London venues Cabana at the O2, Covent Garden and Islington, the chicken-stuffed bites are just one item in the Spicy Malagueta section of Cabana's menu. Made by incorporating hot shredded chicken into pão de queijo, a traditional Brazilian cheese roll. They are also baked in an oven instead of being deep fried like most conventional donuts, making them a slightly healthier option.
Perfect for people whose tastes run to the savory side, the donuts are not for those with a sweet tooth.
