Steps to make Chicken And Waffles:
Cut Chicken Breasts into @ 2" Pieces. Mix all Brine Ingredients in a bowl. Place Chicken pieces in Brine. Make sure all Chicken is covered in Brine, cover and Refrigerate for at least 2 Hours to Overnight.
Mix all Chicken Breading Ingredients in a Mixing Bowl. Set aside.
In a Large Mixing Bowl, add all Dry Waffle Ingredients. Melt Butter, then set aside to cool. In a Small Mixing Bowl, Crack all 4 Eggs over an Egg Separator, Leaving just the Whites. Place Yolks in a Separate Bowl. Whisk Egg Whites until stiff peaks are formed. In a Large Measuring Cup or Bowl, Add Milk, Vanilla, 2 Egg Yolks, and Cooled Melted Butter. Add this Liquid To the Dry Waffle Mix and stir until mostly combined. Fold in Egg Whites. Set aside.
Heat Cooking Oil in a Large Cast Iron Skillet over Medium to Medium High Heat. Oil should be about 1" high and reach between 350° - 375°. Set up a dredging station. Pour a decent amount of the Dry Chicken Breading Mix onto a plate or in shallow bowl. Dredge each piece of Chicken in the Breading Mix, and set on a plate to rest for 5 Minutes. Dredge in the Mix again.
Fry Chicken in small batches for about 7-8 Minutes, turning half way through. Don't overcrowd pan. Place cooked Chicken onto a wire cooling rack/sheet pan. Place in a low oven to keep warm.
Heat Waffle Maker and cook Waffles. Top Waffles with Chicken and toppings or sauce of choice. A spicy honey butter sauce is often customary, and I might post a separate recipe for that one, at some point. Maple syrup or honey is fabulous too. Enjoy!
