Steps
For the waffle

- Add sugar, milk, melted butter and vanilla, mixing continuously until smooth.
- Ladle just enough batter to cover the edges into a preheated waffle maker.
- Cook until the waffles are golden brown.
For the chicken
- Add 1 teaspoon of each seasoning to the buttermilk, incorporate the chicken and let it marinate for at least half an hour.
- When ready to cook, pour vegetable oil in a skillet until it’s ¾ deep and heat it to 175 C.
- In a bowl, combine the plain flour and corn flour to create your breading mixture.
- Pull the chicken from the buttermilk, shaking it gently to remove any excess. Place it in the breading and coat thoroughly.
- Deep fry for 3 minutes a side, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 75 C.
For the sandwich
- Spread some honey mustard dressing on the bottom waffle, add lettuce and tomato, continue with the fried chicken. Add some pickles on top and ranch dressing to finish.
- Pour the maple syrup on top of the waffle.
