Ingredients for Chicken and Waffles
Method
Directions for Chicken and Waffles
Marinate Chicken
In a bowl, combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Add chicken thighs and marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Prepare Flour Mixture
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and baking powder.
Dredge Chicken
Remove chicken from buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, making sure to coat well.
Fry Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken for about 7-8 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Make Waffles
Prepare waffle batter according to package instructions or your homemade recipe. Preheat waffle iron and cook waffles until golden brown.
Assemble Dish
Place a waffle on a plate, top with crispy fried chicken, and drizzle with maple syrup. Serve immediately.
