About this dish

Crisp fried chicken thigh and a warm waffle share the plate, tied together with maple syrup so salty and sweet land in the same bite.

Because the waffles are cooked first and held in a low oven, the chicken can go straight from the oil to the table.

Instructions

7 steps
  1. 1

    Sprinkle 300 g chicken thighs evenly with salt and pepper and let rest for 10 minutes to allow the seasoning to penetrate.

  2. 2

    Dredge the chicken lightly in flour to create a thin base coating and shake off any excess.

  3. 3

    In a bowl, combine 180 g flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 180 ml milk, 1 egg, and 30 g melted butter.

    Mix until smooth with no lumps to make the waffle batter.

  4. 4

    Preheat the waffle iron, pour in the batter, and cook the waffles first.

    Keep them warm in an 80°C oven while frying the chicken.

  5. 5

    Beat the remaining egg and coat the chicken with the egg wash, then dredge again in flour for a second thin coating.

  6. 6

    Fry the chicken in 170°C oil for 8-10 minutes until the coating turns deep golden brown and crispy.

    Drain on a wire rack.

  7. 7

    Place the crispy chicken on warm waffles and drizzle generously with maple syrup.

    Serve immediately.

Tips

Double coating gives a crunchier crust.
Warm the syrup slightly for better flavor.
