Today’s Comfort Food: Spicy Chicken and Cinnamon Waffles

Growing up, my family always enjoyed spending lazy Sundays together, sharing a hearty meal that brought us all comfort and joy. Today, I’m excited to share with you my unique take on a classic comfort food dish that is sure to warm your soul and tantalize your taste buds: Spicy Chicken and Cinnamon Waffles.

To prepare this flavorful dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • skillet
  • waffle maker

For the Spicy Chicken:
– 500g chicken breast, cut into strips
– 1 tsp paprika
– 1 tsp cayenne pepper
– 1/2 tsp garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste

For the Cinnamon Waffles:
– 250g all-purpose flour
– 2 tsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 2 eggs
– 350ml buttermilk
– 50g melted butter
– 2 tbsp honey

Start by marinating the chicken strips in a mixture of paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon for the waffle batter. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, and honey. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken strips until they are golden brown and cooked through. Set aside and keep warm. Preheat your waffle maker and pour the batter onto the hot iron, cooking until the waffles are crisp and golden.

To serve, place a crispy waffle on a plate, top with the spicy chicken strips, and drizzle with a touch of honey for a sweet and savory contrast. The combination of the spicy chicken and cinnamon waffles creates a symphony of flavors that will leave you craving more.

One unusual tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a pinch of cayenne pepper into the waffle batter for an extra kick of heat that pairs perfectly with the spicy chicken.

I hope you give this unique comfort food dish a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite spices and toppings to make it your own. Happy cooking!
