Mini Chicken and Waffles with Syrup Shots
If you ever spend anytime with my wife at all, you will learn that she loves brunch and brunch get togethers with friends. Just recently she had one such event with some friends and signed me up to make an appetizer. And being the weird, loving husband that I am, I got excited! Excited because it would give me a chance to test out this awesome mini chicken and waffles recipe and of course use it as a blog post. Two birds with one stone, SCORE! As usual this recipe is really simple and the payoff is tremendous.
Mini Chicken and Waffles with Syrup Shots
I thought pairing these with the syrup shot glasses was a fun touch and you can find them cheap almost anywhere.
And these aren’t just for brunching,these also make for great gameday snacks on Sundays in the Fall as well. Either way, the combination of both savory and sweet is perfect anytime. Whenever you whip these up be sure to take some pics and be sureto use #omtfoodie, so we can see all of your great ideas.
