Instructions
In a large bowl, coat chicken pieces with buttermilk. Stir well to make sure the chicken is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
For the maple honey butter, add softened butter, honey, maple syrup, and salt to a medium bowl and whisk until well combined. Set aside or refrigerate until needed. Bring to room temperature before serving.
To cook chicken, combine flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt, onion powder, and black pepper in a wide bowl.
In a deep skillet or saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Remove the pieces of chicken from the buttermilk mixture, allowing the excess to drip off. Coat each piece in the flour mixture.
Carefully add each piece to the skillet or saucepan, being careful not to overcrowd. Fry the chicken until golden, about 3-5 minutes per side, and transfer to a towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining chicken. Set aside.
To prepare waffle bites, follow the Classic Waffle Bites Recipe.
Spread the maple honey butter over each waffle bite and top with a piece of fried chicken. Drizzle with additional honey as desired.
Serve and enjoy this sweet and savory classic!
