Smoke Craft BBQ Chicken & Savoury Cheese Waffles

Ingredients

• 600 g boneless chicken breast, cut into strips
• 2 tsp BlixSam Zesty Voël
• 1 cup flour
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1½ cups breadcrumbs
• Oil for frying
• ½ cup BlixSam Smoke Craft Smoky Sweet BBQ Sauce

• 2 cups self-raising flour
• 2 eggs
• 1½ cups milk
• 3 tbsp melted butter
• 1 cup grated cheddar
• 2 spring onions, finely sliced
• 1 tsp BlixSam Garlic Melt
• Pinch of salt

• Extra Smoke Craft Sauce
• Sliced spring onion
• Optional: crispy bacon bits

Method

1. Season the chicken: Coat the chicken strips evenly with Zesty Voël.
2. Place the flour, beaten eggs and breadcrumbs into separate bowls. Dip each chicken strip into flour, then egg and finally breadcrumbs.
3. Fry in hot oil until golden, crispy and completely cooked through. Drain on paper towel.
4. Make the waffle batter: Mix the flour, eggs, milk and melted butter until just combined. Fold through the cheddar, spring onion and Garlic Melt.
5. Cook portions of batter in a hot greased waffle maker until the waffles are deeply golden and crisp on the outside.
6. Warm the Smoke Craft Sauce gently. Toss the crispy chicken with just enough sauce to lightly glaze it while keeping the crumb crispy.
7. Place a savoury cheese waffle onto each plate and pile the sticky Smoke Craft chicken on top.
8. Finish with an extra Smoke Craft drizzle, spring onion and, if you want to take it even further, crispy bacon bits.
