Description

Crispy Chicken Waffles Delight is a delicious fusion of crispy chicken strips and savory waffles, perfect for a satisfying meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Cooking spray
  • 4 oz pork rinds
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 Tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Cooking spray
  • 2 Tbsp freshly chopped chives, for garnish
  • Butter, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease generously with cooking spray.
  2. Add pork rinds to a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a shallow dish and combine with Parmesan.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, mayonnaise, and water. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Dip chicken pieces in egg mixture, letting excess liquid drip off. Coat chicken in pork-rind mixture, pressing to adhere, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake chicken until golden, about 25 to 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat a waffle iron. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, then whisk in almond flour, cheddar, milk, sour cream, and baking powder. Season with salt and pepper.
  7. Grease waffle iron with cooking spray. Following waffle maker directions, add 1/2 cup batter and cook until golden, about 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
  8. Serve chicken tenders with waffles. Garnish with freshly chopped chives and butter if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the egg mixture for 30 minutes before coating.
  • These waffles can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the toaster.
