Best Chicken Waffles On A Stick Recipes

MINI CHICKEN AND WAFFLES ON A STICK

Steps:

• Set waffle iron to MEDIUM temperature.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, powdered sugar, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Add buttermilk, melted butter, egg whites and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
• The waffle iron is hot enough when the waffle iron indicator is red (on my machine anyway).
• For a 9-inch waffle maker, use about half of the batter. (Follow the instructions per your waffle maker.) Close the lid and cook until waffle golden brown and still steaming.
• Repeat with remaining batter.
• Place a cooling rack over a baking sheet.
• Heat 2 cups of oil in a heavy skillet to 375°F.
• Season the chicken, on both sides, with salt & pepper.
• In a medium dish, whisk together flour, mustard powder, garlic powder, paprika and soda water.
• Dredge the chicken in the batter and let the excess drip off.
• Fry until chicken is golden brown on one side then flip the chicken, using tongs, and fry on the other side until it is golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should read 160°F. (The chicken breasts will continue to cook after removing from the heat.) Transfer the chicken to the cooling rack to drain.
• Cut each waffle square into fourths. Cut each chicken tender into fourths.
• Skewer one piece of chicken between two mini waffle squares onto an appetizer skewer.
• Serve immediately with a side of maple syrup (or drizzle the syrup over the chicken waffle appetizers).
• Enjoy!

CHICKEN AND WAFFLES ON A STICK

Steps:

• For the chicken: Fold together the chicken tenders, buttermilk, tarragon, thyme and cayenne pepper in a shallow dish until thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove the chicken and buttermilk mixture from the refrigerator. Sift the flour, garlic powder, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper and onion powder into a separate shallow dish.
• Preheat the oil in a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat to about 350 degrees F. Thread each tender onto a skewer.
• Dredge each skewered tender in the flour mixture, coating completely and shaking off any excess. Dip each back in the buttermilk mixture and again in the flour mixture, gently shaking off any excess.
• In small batches, gently drop the skewers into the oil and fry, about 5 minutes. Flip and fry until golden brown, an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
• For the waffle batter: Place the flour, milk, oil, sugar, vanilla extract, baking powder, baking soda, salt and eggs in a large bowl and whisk until no lumps remain. Dip the fried tenders in the batter, coating completely. In batches, gently drop the skewers back into the oil and fry, about 4 minutes. Flip and fry an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Just before serving, brush with a light coating of melted butter and drizzle with maple syrup. Serve warm.

BUTTERMILK WAFFLES WITH BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• For the waffles: Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt in a large bowl.
• In a second bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth, then whisk in the buttermilk and butter until combined. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix just until the batter comes together; there will be lumps. Cover and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Set a baking rack over baking sheet and place on the center rack. Preheat a waffle maker according to manufacturer's instructions and brush with melted butter.
• For each waffle, ladle about 1/3 cup of the batter onto the iron. Cover and cook until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes; the waffles will be a little misshapen--not perfectly square, with rounded corners. As you go, transfer the cooked waffles to the baking rack in the oven and hold there while you fry the chicken.
• For the fried chicken: While the waffle batter rests, place the chicken tenders in a resealable plastic bag. Add 1 cup of the buttermilk and the hot sauce, then seal the bag and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour with the garlic powder, onion powder, chile de arbol, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Transfer half of the flour mixture to a second bowl. In a third bowl, put the remaining 1 cup buttermilk.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 inches of oil in a high-sided skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium heat until it registers 360 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, dredge the chicken in the first dish of seasoned flour, then dip in the buttermilk, letting excess drain off, and finally dredge in the second bowl of seasoned flour, tapping off excess. Fry until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and season with salt.
• To serve, put two waffles on each of four plates. Top them with three tenders and drizzle all with hot sauce, if desired, and honey.

CHICKEN & WAFFLES ON A STICK RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with a couple inches of oil. Preheat to 360ºF. 2 In a mixing bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Combine the spice mixture and chicken tenders in a plastic ziptop bag and toss to coat. Let sit for 10-15 minutes. 3 In a shallow dish, lightly beat the eggs and combine with the buttermilk and water. In another shallow dish, add the flour, corn starch and then season with salt and pepper. Dip each piece into the buttermilk mixture and then coat in flour. 4 Skewer each dredged chicken tender on the top of an 8-inch wooden skewer. Working in batches, fry the dredged chicken until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Remove fried chicken skewers to a paper towel-lined plate. Allow chicken to cool slightly. Discard hot used oil in a cool pot. Replace with a couple of inches of clean oil and return to 360ºF. 5 For the Malted Waffle Batter: In a large bowl, add the flour, malt powder, corn meal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, corn starch and salt, and whisk to combine. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla and butter, and whisk to combine, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients to prevent lumps. Allow batter to sit for 10-15 minutes. 6 Dip the cooled, fried chicken skewers into the waffle batter and into the hot oil. Fry until golden and crisp, 5 minutes. 7 Serve Chicken and Waffle skewers with maple syrup on the side. 8 Tips: - For easy dipping, put the waffle batter in a tall glass. Then dip the fried chicken into it. - For an extra-crispy fried chicken batter, try using rice flour.
