Irresistible Gluten-Free Chicken and Waffles

Ingredients:

For the Fried Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1 cup of gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon of paprika
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup of buttermilk (or substitute with dairy-free milk)
Cooking oil, for frying

For the Waffles:

8. 2 cups of gluten-free waffle mix

Ingredients required by the waffle mix (usually eggs, oil, and water/milk)

Instructions:

For the Fried Chicken:

In a shallow bowl, mix the gluten-free all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Dip each chicken piece into the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then coat it with the seasoned flour mixture.

Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Carefully place the coated chicken pieces in the hot oil. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

For the Waffles:

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

In a mixing bowl, prepare the gluten-free waffle mix according to the package directions, using the required eggs, oil, and water/milk.

Pour the waffle batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.

Once the waffles are done, remove them from the waffle iron and keep them warm.

Assembly:

Place a cooked waffle on a plate.

Top the waffle with a piece of the fried chicken.

Drizzle your preferred syrup or sauce over the chicken and waffles. Maple syrup works well, but you can also use honey or a savory gravy.

Serve the gluten-free chicken and waffles hot and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures.

Note: Always ensure that the ingredients you use, including the gluten-free all-purpose flour and waffle mix, are certified gluten-free. You can also customize the recipe by adding your favorite seasonings or herbs to the flour mixture for the chicken.
