1

Fry the chicken

Heat a generous amount of oil in a deep frying pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating up, season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. Dredge the chicken in flour, making sure to coat it completely. Carefully place the chicken in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer the fried chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

2

Make the doughnuts

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F (190°C). Drop spoonfuls of the doughnut batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

Assemble the chicken and waffles doughnut

Take one of the doughnuts and slice it in half horizontally. Place a piece of the fried chicken on the bottom half of the doughnut. Drizzle some maple syrup over the chicken. Top it off with the other half of the doughnut. Repeat with the remaining doughnuts and chicken. Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful fusion of flavors!
