Chicken

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Add the chicken and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coating

    In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Remove chicken from the marinade. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes for breasts and 6-8 minutes for wings. Drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Make the Waffles

    Prepare your favorite waffle batter as per instructions or use a store-bought mix. Cook waffles according to your waffle maker instructions until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Place a waffle on a plate, top with fried chicken, and serve with syrup or your favorite toppings.
