Chicken & Waffle Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
Prepare the Waffle Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed; set aside.
Cook the Chicken
Preheat oil in a deep frying pan. Dredge each chicken breast in egg, then coat with bread crumbs. Fry the chicken in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Make the Fig and Chili Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine fig preserves and chili sauce over low heat until melted together. Stir until smooth and heated through.
Cook the Waffles
Preheat your waffle iron. Pour the batter into the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden brown.
Assemble the Dish
Place a waffle on a plate, top with the fried chicken breast, and drizzle with fig and chili syrup. Serve immediately.
