 Combine 2 tablespoons soy sauce, rice vinegar, 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, sugar, and sesame oil in a large resealable plastic bag to make marinade. Add cubed chicken, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes.
  Meanwhile, mix together water, honey, brown sugar, oyster sauce, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce, mustard powder, and garlic in a small saucepan. Warm mixture over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and sauce is well combined, 3 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
  Combine potato starch, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess; discard remaining marinade. Dredge chicken cubes in potato starch mixture, ensuring all sides are covered.
  Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet. Add chicken and fry on all sides until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Pour sauce over chicken in the skillet and toss to coat. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
