Chicken and Waffles...

/pine · Nov 12, 2018

Not the typical waffles and regular fried chicken...have no idea where that came from...

I chicken and waffles I grew up eating is something different...very easy and simple...it's usually made with left over chicken.

Debone and roughly chop the chicken...in pot boil the chicken with enough water for the amount of chicken (will be thickened later)
ad a stalk of celery and whatever seasonings...boil long enough to make a flavorful broth...then remove the celery and thicken (flour or cornstarch etc.) to a nice light gravy...

Spoon over regular waffles...the flavors complement each other for a really tasty entree...

Also like smoked sausage and gravy over hotcakes...!

My wife is a big fan. That is fried chicken tenders, waffles and lots of syrup. Your version sounds better to me.

The minor ingredients vary but the origin of the recipe I cited is what is referred to as "Pennsylvania Dutch"

Was thinking the same thing. I'll pass, thanks. Sounds like one of those southern dishes like okra or biscuits & gravy that doesn't translate well to other parts of the country.

I'm sure we have things in New England that people elsewhere find unappetizing.

That looks **** good to me. Having it over a waffle seems like a nice alternative to a biscuit or toast. This will be on my 'to do' list.

Only time I ever had chicken and waffles was in Las Vegas.

What happens in Las Vegas is supposed to STAY IN LAS VEGAS.

Actually sounds very close to the chicken and dumplings that I grew up with, except using the waffles instead of the dumplings. But waffles and dumplings use similar ingredients.
