Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Prepare the sauce:

    Whisk the mayonnaise, mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  2. Prepare chicken fingers:

    Place 1/4 cup flour in a shallow bowl and set aside. In a larger bowl, combine the remaining 1 3/4 cups flour, cornmeal, sugar, chili powder, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Make a well in the center and add the milk and eggs. Knead until smooth.

  3. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet. Heat 4 cm of vegetable oil in a medium Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 175°C (350°F) on a deep-fry thermometer.
  4. Working with a few chicken pieces at a time, season them with salt, dredge them in flour, shake off any excess, then dip them in the batter. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain the desired oil temperature. Transfer the chicken fingers to a wire rack to drain any excess fat. Serve with the sauce.
