Love chicken and waffles? My crispy oven-fried chicken with a crunchy cornflake crust is healthier and pairs with fluffy potato chive savory waffles. This classic Southern dish is made with a twist making it an irresistible sweet-and-savory breakfast/brunch favorite!

Instructions
For the Oven Fried Chicken
- In a gallon size freezer bag, place chicken breast in bag. In a bowl whisk together the buttermilk, Louisiana hot sauce, and sage. Pour over chicken breast. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add the all-purpose flour, corn flakes, sage, salt, and black pepper into food processor. Puree for 10-15 seconds until corn flakes are broken up.
- Remove marinated chicken from refrigerator. Pour flour mixture into a shallow bowl, coat all sides of the chicken.
- Using a baking sheet that has a wire rack on top, spray with cooking spray and line the baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the chicken on the wire rack. Bake for 60 minutes (or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Remove chicken from oven, using a basting brush—brush butter on top (this will remove the white flour look on the chicken and give more flavor). Once all the butter is used and the chicken is well coated place the chicken back in the oven and broil on low for an additional 3-5 minutes (for golden brown skin). Serve chicken immediately with waffles and top with diced chives and maple syrup.
For the Savory Waffles
- Preheat a waffle iron.
- While Waffle Baker is preheating, place 2 large eggs, 2 cups buttermilk, 1 stick of melted unsalted butter, and minced chives into a KitchenAid® Stand Mixer. Mix with flat beater attachment on “stir” setting for 30 seconds.
- In a separate bowl, add the dry ingredients; all purpose flour, instant mashed potatoes, garlic powder, sugar, baking soda, salt, and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on “stir” setting for 10 seconds then bump up to speed 2 for 20 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, mix for 5 more seconds. Batter will be lumpy—it’s ok.
- Once waffle iron is preheated, place one cup of waffle batter into the baker. Bake for 4:15 each. Let cool on a wire rack.
- Divide chicken and waffles evenly among plates. Sprinkle with chives and drizzle with maple syrup. Enjoy.
