Waffles

Chicken Cutlets

Toppings

Method

Waffles

  1. 1

    Prepare the Waffle Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined. In another bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

  2. 2

    Cook the Waffles

    Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat until all the batter is used. Set aside and keep warm.

Chicken Cutlets

  1. 3

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for uniform cooking. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 4

    Bread the Chicken

    Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with breadcrumbs. Dredge each chicken breast first in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.

  3. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken cutlets. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and let drain on paper towels.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    Lay one waffle on a plate. Place a crispy chicken cutlet on top of the waffle, followed by slices of fresh mozzarella. Drizzle with truffle honey and sprinkle crispy basil over the top. Finish with another waffle to create a sandwich.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half if desired, and serve immediately while warm.
