How to Make Battered Chicken Tapas With Honey And Mustard Pollo Rebozado

  1. Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
  2. Place chicken pieces in a bowl.
  3. Crack 2 large eggs over the chicken and mix thoroughly with your hands.
  4. 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.
  5. Heat 1/2 cup vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
  6. 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.
  7. Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. 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.
  10. Just before serving, drizzle the honey mustard sauce over the crispy chicken pieces.
