The crispy, golden brown chicken pieces are the star of this dish. Make sure to cook them until they're cooked through and have a nice crunch on the outside.
The fluffy waffles provide the perfect base for the chicken and syrup. Cut them into bite-sized pieces to make assembling the mini chicken and waffles easier.
Drizzle the maple syrup over the chicken and waffles for a sweet and savory treat. Use real maple syrup for the best flavor.
