Instructions
Fried Chicken:
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even 1" thickness with a kitchen mallet.
- Score the top of the chicken breasts into an x pattern (this will help the coating adhere better and give you a better crunch).
- Mix the chicken, buttermilk, salt, pepper and hot sauce in a large bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- Mix the paprika with the flour in a medium bowl with a baking sheet set up next to it.
- Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, then add each chicken piece to the flour, coating well, then place onto the baking sheet and let sit for at least 30 minutes (the flour will become paste-like).
- Prepare a large dutch oven ½ full with canola oil heated to 365 degrees and fry in batches if needed (do not crowd the pan).
- Cook for 8-10 minutes (check that chicken has reached 165 degrees and is cooked through).
- Make the waffles after you finish the chicken, letting the chicken rest and serve together still hot.
Belgian Waffle:
- Spray the waffle maker with a bit of oil.
- Into a large bowl sift the flour and baking powder. Then add the salt and sugar, mixing well.
- Using a hand mixer beat the egg whites in a small bowl, until they form stiff peaks which stand straight up.
- In a second bowl whisk the egg yolks, butter, milk and vanilla together.
- Whisk the butter mixture into the flour mixture until just combined then, very very gently, fold in egg whites (do not stir)
- Pour 1/3 cup servings into your Belgian waffle maker to cook as directed.
Hot Honey:
- In a large pot on medium-high heat, add the honey, hot sauce and cayenne pepper until it just comes to a simmer.
- Drizzle over the cooked chicken.
