Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and set aside a baking tray.

2. Let the chicken sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before breading.

3. Set up three plates:

   • Plate 1: Mix the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and dried mustard.

   • Plate 2: Whisk the eggs.

   • Plate 3: Leave empty for breaded chicken.

4. Dredge each piece of chicken through the flour mixture, then the whisked egg, and then back through the flour mixture again. (Flour → Egg → Flour).

5. Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat (target 350°F).

6. Fry 2-3 pieces at a time, flipping once golden brown. Place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

7. Transfer fried chicken to the baking tray and bake for 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Set aside.

Step 2: Make the Honey Sriracha Sauce

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, sriracha, honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice.

2. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and let the sauce thicken slightly.

Step 3: Make the Waffles

1. Preheat waffle iron.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sour cream, vanilla, melted butter, milk, and egg yolk.

3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg white until stiff peaks form, then fold it into the batter.

4. Spray waffle iron with non-stick spray. Pour batter onto the waffle iron and cook for 2-2½ minutes per waffle. Repeat until all batter is used.

Step 4: Assemble and Serve

1. Toss the fried chicken in the honey sriracha sauce until evenly coated.

2. Place one waffle on each plate and top with two pieces of chicken.

3. Serve immediately and enjoy!
