To make this delicious dish, 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

To start, season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
Dip the chicken breast in the flour mixture, then in the buttermilk mixture, and then back in the flour mixture. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken breast for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the waffle according to the package instructions. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and maple syrup. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
To serve, place the waffle on a plate and top with the fried chicken breast. Pour the maple syrup gravy over the chicken and waffle.
This dish is a perfect combination of sweet and savory flavors. The crispy fried chicken pairs perfectly with the fluffy waffle and the sweet maple syrup gravy. It's a filling and satisfying meal that will leave you wanting more.
