This must be one of the most commonly served hors d’oeuvres in Peru. Tasty deep-fried nuggets of chicken are offered in a stunning variety of presentations of which this is only one. In this recipe the skin is kept on for extra bite and flavor. The fact that soy sauce is included in this popular dish is proof of the influence of Chinese cuisine on Peruvian eating habits.
