Sage Fried Chicken And Waffles
My fiancée loves Hush House A Go Go but we live in the UK. He's been pestering me to make him chicken and waffles for quite sometime, so eventually I went online and thanks to Google + I found a very similar recipe. Its a fair bit of effort to make but its so worth it.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
*chicken cooking process**
* Step 2
Place each individual piece of chicken in a zip lock bag and lightly pound to flatten the thicker sides of the chicken so that each piece is evenly thick. (This method is better with boneless pieces)
* Step 3
I part cooked the chicken by bringing it to the boil with a pinch of seasoned salt for about 10-12 minutes. Then let it cool down before coating in the batter.
* Step 4
Mix the corn starch, flour, cornflakes, sage and season all and place in a shallow bowl.
* Step 5
Place the egg wash in another shallow bowl.
* Step 7
Dip and coat evenly the chicken pieces in the egg wash then in the flour mixture.
* Step 8
Deep fry the chicken for 6-7 minutes (boneless), 9-10 minutes (bone-in) or until is has cooked through.
* Step 9
Once cooked drain on kitchen roll to remove excess fat.
* Step 10
*waffle cooking process**
* Step 11
While the chicken is frying move onto the waffles. Preheat the waffle iron.
* Step 12
If you don't have buttermilk you can make your own as I did. For every 1 cup of milk add 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar or lemon juice then let it rest for at least 5 minutes before adding to the mixture.
* Step 13
Mix all the dry ingredients together and set aside.
* Step 14
In another bowl mix the wet ingredients making sure to break up the eggs and mix them in.
* Step 15
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until theres only a few lumps left (Add a bit more water or milk if the mixture is a tad too thick).
* Step 16
Spray the waffle iron with oil.
* Step 17
Spoon the waffle mixture onto the hot iron making sure the batter fills all corners of the waffle iron.
* Step 18
Lay 2-4 pieces of bacon diagonally across each waffle batch.
* Step 19
Close the waffle iron and cook until golden and cripsy.
* Step 20
Cut the waffles apart once cooked.
* Step 22
The recipe stated to fry these before the chicken. Personally I don't think it matters as they take so little time to cook.
* Step 23
Cut the onion and leeks very thinly into strips.
* Step 24
Fry in a deep fat fryer until golden and crispy.
* Step 25
Once its done drain on kitchen roll.
* Step 27
In a small saucepan mix all the ingredients (minus the cornstarch and water) and bring to the boil then reduce the heat to simmer.
* Step 28
Mix the water and cornstarch together to make a slurry mixture. Then mix it into the bbq sauce.
* Step 29
Simmer for another 3-5 minutes or until it thickens up a little bit more.
* Step 31
On a plate layer 2 bacon waffles then top with a chicken piece.
* Step 32
Secure the waffles and chicken with a skewer.
* Step 33
Next add a handful of the fried leeks and Onions on top of your stack.
* Step 34
Dribble a little of the bbq sauce on the stack and on the plate.
* Step 35
Skewer your stack with the rosemary and a steak knife (optional).
* Step 36
Garnish with a handful of chopped peppers.
* Step 37
Warm the maple syrup either in the microwave on 30 second intervals or on the stove in a small saucepan. Do not let it boil.
* Step 38
Lastly, serve with maple syrup on the side of the plate (put in a small side bowl). Don't drizzle yourself, let each individual do it themselves.
* Step 39
Once your happy with your designer dish serve up.
