Pop quiz: Which appetizer will have your guests buzzing for days: (A) jalapeño poppers, (B) pigs in a blanket or (C) bite-sized chicken and waffles? The answer is definitely C. Jalapeño poppers are great and all, but we’ve been there and done that. Pigs in a blanket? Yawn. You need something that’s going to elevate your appetizer game to expert level. Like, an epic upgrade on chicken & waffles. Ladies and gentlemen, these bite-sized nuggets of hot, crisp, sweet and salty will hit your taste buds in all the right places. Not to mention how simple they are to put together this up coming holiday season.
I don’t know about you all, but it has been a whirlwind between the beginning of August to now. Summer has officially ended, and we’re about to kick off holiday party season soon. This year, I only have super simple recipes on my radar. Luckily this recipe is simple enough, and all you have to do is fry up some crunchy chicken nuggets, top onto toasted mini waffles and drizzle with maple syrup. With a skewer in each bite, they turn into an appetizer perfect for grabbing and grazing.
I suggest making these chicken and waffle bites for a party where you need hearty snacks or heavy hors d’oeuvres. These are the perfect balance of protein/fat/carb and you could make a meal of these, which is great for hungry guests.
I’m going to let you all in on a little secret. The key to making the crispiest fried chicken with an airy texture, is to use Argo® Corn Starch. The ‘secret ingredient’ is arguably the most important part of any recipe. It’s what sets your recipe apart from others and makes it a success. Argo® is the secret ingredient you’ve been looking for – bringing endless possibilities to the table and providing a worry-free solution to thicken, adjust texture and elevate your cooking and baking.
From crispy chicken to thick gravy and sidewalk chalk to slime, Argo allows you to easily deliver delicious dishes and fun activities your whole family will love. When most people think of using corn starch for a recipe, it’s to thicken sauces and soups. When used in your batter to fry chicken it will leave you with an audible crunchy and beautiful browned exterior while sealing in the juices of the chicken. I choose Argo® Corn Starch because it is the leading corn starch brand with over 100 years of quality and trust over multiple generations.
