Amish Chicken And Waffles Recipes

AMISH CHICKEN AND WAFFLES

Steps:

• Pull the meat from the roasted chicken and cut or shred into bite-size pieces. Keep warm in a 250-degree oven until ready to assemble and serve.
• Preheat a 4-square waffle maker.
• Separate the egg yolk and white, and reserve the egg white in a small bowl.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan and remove from heat to cool slightly.
• Whisk the egg yolk and milk together in a large bowl.
• Add the melted butter, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to the egg and milk. Whisk together until just barely combined; some lumps may remain.
• Beat the egg white by hand or with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
• Gently fold the egg white into the batter with a spatula.
• Grease the waffle maker, if necessary, and pour the batter evenly into the waffle iron. Depending on the depth and size of your waffle maker, you may have a bit of leftover batter. Cook according to your waffle maker's specifications.
• Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan or deep skillet over medium-low heat.
• Sprinkle the flour evenly over the melted butter and whisk to incorporate into a roux.
• Cook, whisking frequently, until the roux turns toasty golden. It will remain pale for a few minutes, then toast quickly, so keep an eye on it.
• Drizzle in the chicken stock, whisking constantly as it's added. The flour will clump, but continue to whisk and the gravy will smooth itself out.
• Add the half and half and cook, stirring frequently, until the gravy thickens and comes to a simmer.
• Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Place a waffle on a plate, top with shredded roast chicken, and drizzle with gravy. Add mashed potatoes if you're into it. That's all you need.

CHICKEN AND WAFFLES

Steps:

• Special equipment: a deep-fry thermometer
• For the fried chicken: Thoroughly rinse the chicken, then cover all the pieces with 1 3/4 cups of buttermilk. Soak in the fridge overnight or up to 24 hours.
• When you're ready to fry the chicken, remove the bowl from the fridge and let it sit on the counter for 30 minutes to take off the chill.
• In the meantime, preheat the oven to 360 degrees F and mix the breading. Put the flour, seasoned salt, paprika, pepper, thyme and cayenne (extra cayenne if you like heat) in a very large bowl and stir together well.
• In a small bowl, combine the milk and remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk. Pour into the flour mixture and, with a fork, gradually mix until there are little lumps throughout. This will adhere to the chicken and make for a crispier breading. If necessary, add a little more flour or milk to the bowl in order to make it slightly lumpy.
• Heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 365 degrees F. Lower the heat slightly, if necessary, to keep the oil from getting hotter.
• Working in batches, thoroughly coat each chicken piece with the breading, pressing extra breading onto the chicken if necessary. Place the breaded pieces on a plate.
• Add the chicken to the oil 3 or 4 pieces at a time. Make sure they aren't sticking together, then cover the skillet and fry for 5 to 7 minutes, checking occasionally to make sure the chicken isn't getting too brown. Turn the pieces over, cover again and cook 3 to 5 minutes more. All the while, monitor the temperature of the oil to make sure the chicken doesn't burn. Transfer the fried chicken pieces to a baking sheet (they will not be completely cooked through) and continue frying the rest of the chicken.
• Bake the thighs for 15 minutes to finish the cooking process. Sometimes I'll cut into the thicker part of one of the larger pieces, just to make sure the chicken is cooked through. (If any pink juice or meat is visible, the chicken needs to continue cooking in the oven.) Cover and keep warm.
• For the waffles: Preheat the waffle iron to the regular setting. Sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vanilla and 2 egg yolks. Pour over the dry ingredients and very gently stir until halfway combined. Pour in the melted butter and chopped jalapenos and continue mixing very gently until combined.
• In a separate bowl (or using a mixer), beat the 4 egg whites with a whisk until stiff. Slowly fold them into the batter, stopping short of mixing them all the way through.
• Scoop the batter into your waffle iron in batches and cook according to the manufacturer's directions (lean toward being a little deep golden and crisp!). Keep warm.
• For the sauce: Pour the pancake syrup and bourbon in a small pot and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the butter 1 tablespoon at a time, then the cayenne.
• To serve: Place 2 chicken thighs on top of a waffle. Pour the warm sauce over everything and serve immediately.

SMOTHERED CHICKEN WAFFLE SANDWICH

Steps:

• For the smothered chicken: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the Cajun seasoning and scallions and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Whisk in the chicken broth and milk and bring to a simmer, whisking often, then simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add the shredded chicken and stir until hot. Season with salt and a generous amount of black pepper, then add a few shakes of hot sauce. Keep warm or reheat before serving.
• For the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron on the hottest setting.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together in a bowl. In another large bowl, whisk the sour cream, milk, butter and eggs together. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk until just combined.
• Spray the waffle iron with cooking spray and make the waffles according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Cut or break the waffles in half (2 squares per sandwich) and fill evenly with the hot smothered chicken.

• Dip the chicken into the beaten egg mixture, then place into the flour mixture and shake to coat. Place the breaded chicken onto a wire rack; do not stack. Let the chicken rest for 20 minutes to allow the coating to set.
• Heat about 3 inches of oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In small batches, fry chicken 5 to 8 minutes until golden brown. Remove chicken, and drain on paper towels. Set aside or keep warm in a a low oven.
• Combine the mayonnaise, maple syrup, horseradish, and mustard powder in a medium bowl. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
• To assemble the sandwiches: Place 4 waffles on a cookie sheet, top each waffle with 2 chicken tenders, 3 slices of bacon, and 2 slices of Cheddar. Broil the sandwich for a 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese melts. Spread 3 tablespoons of the maple mayonnaise on the remaining 4 waffles and place on top of the sandwich.

SIMPLE STOVETOP AMISH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the chicken into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover it. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook over high heat until chicken is easily removed from the bone, about 35 minutes. Turn the chicken over once during this time so it will cook evenly. Cutting the chicken into pieces can speed up the cooking process a bit.
• While the chicken is cooking, cut two of the potatoes into large chunks, and the other potato into very small cubes.
• When the chicken is cooked, remove it from the water. Pull off the skin, and place all of the chicken meat in a separate dish. Pull the meat apart in long shreds. Reserve the cooking water in a separate container. Discard chicken skin and bones.
• Pour the chicken broth into the pot, and add potatoes, chicken, salt, and pepper. Pour in 2 to 3 cups of the reserved water. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 15 minutes, until potatoes start to soften. Add 3 more cups of the chicken water, and the noodles. Season with salt-free seasoning blend, salt, and pepper. Cover, and simmer over medium-low heat until the noodles are tender and small potato pieces have dissolved.
