How to Make Battered Chicken Tapas With Honey And Mustard Pollo Rebozado
- Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
- Place chicken pieces in a bowl.
- Crack 2 large eggs over the chicken and mix thoroughly with your hands.
- Gradually add 1 cup all-purpose flour to the chicken mixture, mixing until the chicken is fully coated. The batter should be wet but not dripping.
- Heat 1/2 cup vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Carefully add the chicken pieces to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Let stand for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to blend.
- Just before serving, drizzle the honey mustard sauce over the crispy chicken pieces.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
