Chicken and Waffles with Maple Syrup

Chicken and Waffles with Maple Syrup is a classic Southern dish that combines the savory flavor of fried chicken with the sweet taste of waffles and maple syrup. This dish is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner.

To make Chicken and Waffles with Maple Syrup, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 chicken breast
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 waffle
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup


To start, preheat your oven to 200°F. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. In another shallow dish, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
Dip the chicken breast into the flour mixture, then into the buttermilk mixture, and then back into the flour mixture. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, toast the waffle and spread butter on top. Once the chicken is done, transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
To serve, place the chicken on top of the waffle and drizzle with maple syrup. The combination of crispy fried chicken, fluffy waffles, and sweet maple syrup is simply irresistible.
This dish can be classified as a breakfast or brunch dish and its three main ingredients are chicken, waffles, and maple syrup.
