Crispy Chicken Waffle Bites
These Crispy Chicken Waffle Bites make for a fun, savory treat that’s perfect for any time of the day!
Begin by preheating your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of waffle mix, 1 egg, and 1 cup of milk. Stir until well blended and set aside.
In another bowl, season the 1 pound of chicken thigh with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. You can cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken pieces. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, add a small amount of cooking spray to the preheated waffle maker. Pour a ladle of the waffle batter onto the waffle maker and close the lid. Cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden brown, usually about 3 to 5 minutes.
Once the first waffle is done, place it on a plate and repeat the process until all the batter is used up.
To assemble, take a piece of waffle, add some crispy chicken on top, drizzle with maple syrup, and top with another waffle to create a bite-sized stack.
Serve warm and enjoy your Crispy Chicken Waffle Bites!
