When I speak with people of Chicken and Waffles I always get strange looks. 'Chicken and What?" they always ask. Yes, chicken and waffles, and it is awesome. It makes great use of leftovers from a roast chicken dinner.
Chicken & Waffles
1. Melt 4 Tbsp. butter in a sauce pan (or Saucier) over medium-low heat.
2. Sprinkle 4 tbsp. of AP flour over the butter and whisk to combine.
3. Whisk 2 cups milk into the flour and butter mixture and raise the heat to medium high.
4. Add leftover chicken (1-3 cups or so) to the mixture and if you have any leftover gravy throw that in too.
5. Bring to a boil then drop the heat to medium low and simmer until thickened.
6. Salt and pepper to taste.
7. Meanwhile make a batch of your favorite waffles. If it is a very sweet recipe reduce the sugar.
8. Serve the chicken over the waffles. Viola!
Variation include minced onion, carrot and celery sauteed in the butter prior to adding the flour or dropping a bay leaf in with the milk. Mushrooms also would be very nice.
