Ever wondered what to serve with chicken and waffles? If you're like me, then you love this sweet and savory dish and although it could be eaten just like that, there are many little things that can be added to make it a wonderful and complete meal.
My kids love when I make this crispy chicken with fluffy waffles. Naturally, anything loaded with sugar and their sweet tooth selves are in heaven.
I am a huge fan of the sweet and savory thing. If you want to see how I cook my chicken and waffles, then click here.

Why You'll Love It
- This is the meaning of soul food. One of the best things to come out of the south.
- It's the most delicious comfort food you can get.
- It's a great way to get the sweet and salty combo. It's an odd combination, but delicious every time.
- You can use any type of chicken pieces you prefer. Chicken Breasts, chicken tenders, chicken wings, drumsticks, chicken strips, chicken thighs. They all fry well.
- Homemade chicken, homemade waffles - when you make these things at home at least you know what you're getting. Use a Belgian waffle iron to make things easy.

They're made by separating the egg yolks from the whites, whipping up the egg whites until you have stiff peaks, then folding them back into the waffle ingredients. The best part - fluffy waffles every time. See my waffle recipe here.
