Equipment

  • waffle iron
  • cast iron skillet
  • deep frying thermometer

Ingredients
  

For the Fried Chicken:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 2 tsp. onion powder
  • 2 tsp. paprika
  • ½ tsp. kosher salt
  • ½ tsp. black pepper
  • 1 cup vegetable oil

For the Bacon Waffles:

  • 8 slices bacon
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (248g)
  • 4 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tbsp. brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 8 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted

For the Sriracha Honey Sauce:

  • ½ cup honey
  • 2 tbsp. melted butter
  • 1 tbsp. sriracha

Instructions
 

For the Fried Chicken:

  • Cut each breast vertically into long strips about a half inch thick. Season the strips with salt and pepper.
  • Prepare 3 bowls for dipping the chicken. Divide the flour and spices between 2 bowls and place the buttermilk in the third bowl.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet filled with one inch of oil to 350 degrees. Dip each strip in the flour, then the buttermilk, and then into the second bowl of flour. Fry each piece until golden brown on both sides. Drain the chicken on a wire rack.

For the Bacon Waffles:

  • Cook the bacon in a skillet until it's done, and then chop each slice into half inch pieces. Set aside half to sprinkle on the finished plates.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, and then stir in the milk and sour cream. Add the flour mixture, stirring just until no streaks of flour remain. Try not to overmix. Stir in the butter and bacon.
  • Cook the batter in your waffle iron, according to the manufacturer's directions.

For the Sriracha Honey Sauce:

  • Stir everything together and warm up right before serving.

To Serve:

  • Top the waffle with the chicken, bacon, and Sriracha Honey Sauce.
