These corn dogs are named after hot dogs, but they're prepared entirely differently. Instead of sausage, they use long pieces of chicken, skewered on wooden skewers, dipped in a batter made with cornmeal, wheat flour, and spices, and deep-fried. Smoked paprika, garlic, and mustard powder, along with honey, give the batter a wonderful flavor that pairs perfectly with the chicken. Fry in plenty of oil, maintaining the correct temperature, to ensure the corn dogs are well-done inside and crispy on the outside. These treats on sticks are perfect for house parties and children's parties.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Toss the chicken pieces with 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a generous pinch of salt. Thread each piece onto an 8-inch skewer, making sure they don't slip.
- Fill a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed kazan or saucepan with 5 cm of vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 180°C (350°F).
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, mustard powder, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, honey, and vegetable oil. Stir the milk mixture into the flour mixture until a smooth batter forms. Transfer the batter to a tall glass for easy dipping.
- Sprinkle a small amount of flour onto a plate. Working in batches, hold the chicken by the skewers and lightly coat them in flour, tapping them on the plate to release any excess. Dip the skewers in the batter to coat the chicken, letting any excess drip back into the glass. If the batter is too thick, add a little water.
- Place the chicken, skewers included, in the hot oil and cook, turning with tongs, until the corn dogs are browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to paper towels to drain any excess oil; return the oil to 180°C (350°F) before frying the next batch of chicken.
- While the chicken is hot, season it with a little salt. Serve with mustard.
