Fried Chicken Waffles
I love fried chicken. Unabashedly, without a doubt, adore it. Chicken and waffles is an LA favorite and every restaurant seems to serve their version for brunch. While I love going out to try the latest incarnations, making this dish at home is just as easy.
You notice there’s no and in the title of this recipe, that’s because I put the fried chicken IN the waffle! Both are wonderful but why not combine them into the Voltron of breakfast foods?
The savory fried chicken compliments the buttery, crisp waffle making it the perfect combination you never thought you needed. Once you’ve had Fried Chicken Waffles you’ll never separate them again!
