Tapa is a large flat frying pan on which the chicken carcass is flattened when frying, hence the correct Georgian name of the dish - "chicken tapaka", that is, cooked on tapa. Where did tobacco come from? Most likely, just by consonance, there was a broken telephone, as often happens with names borrowed from a foreign language. Chicken tapaka is a portioned dish, a small chicken is just enough to fill up a person with a good appetite, it is not customary to share it. You should not marinate the bird in spices for too long, otherwise they will drown out the taste of the chicken, thirty minutes will be enough. But you should definitely beat it well and then press it against the frying pan with a press (a large cast iron frying pan works great as a press) : the bird will be fried through and covered with a golden crust.
