Chicken & Waffle Bites

Recipe Description

You and your kids will love these Chicken & Waffle Bites. They are a great recipe to have up your sleeve for a kids party or to make as a special treat for a sleepover. Normally, when I think of waffles, I think of the sweet version covered with fruit and chocolate sauce. This is a delicious savory take on waffles.

Start by mixing together egg, milk, vanilla, and oil. Sift dry ingredients into a separate large bowl and mix with the egg mixture to make a batter. Add seasoned chicken cubes to the batter and mix until well coated. Spoon the mixture into the waffle iron and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the waffles are golden brown. Serve with a mustard, maple syrup, and honey dipping sauce.

To make Chicken & Waffle Bites, you will need the following ingredients:
