📝Description: 

These Chicken & Waffle Tacos are a delightful mashup of comfort food classics, made weeknight-easy with store-bought ingredients and a homemade honey cream drizzle that’ll make you want to lick the spoon (go ahead, no judgment). Frozen waffles stand in for taco shells, cradling crispy popcorn chicken bites and topped with a golden drizzle of rich honey and cream. Optional chopped pecans give just the right bit of crunch. Brunch, dinner, or party appetizer, these tacos are always the answer.

🍯Ingredients

  • 6 regular-sized frozen waffles

  • 1 lb store-bought popcorn chicken (frozen or fresh)

  • Canola oil, for frying

  • 6 tbsp Fingerlakes Honey Company honey

  • 2 tbsp heavy cream

  • Chopped pecans (optional), for topping

🥣Directions

  1. Heat up your oil in a medium pot to 350°F.

  2. While the oil is heating, make your honey cream by mixing the honey and heavy cream until smooth. Set it aside and try not to eat it by the spoonful

  3. Defrost your waffles and gently fold each one into a taco shape.

  4. Fry the waffles: Using tongs to keep their shape, carefully place a folded waffle into the hot oil. Once it’s holding its taco shape, let it go and flip it over for even cooking. Fry until golden and crispy.

  5. Remove the waffle taco and place it on paper towels to cool.

  6. Stuff those tacos! Fill each waffle taco generously with popcorn chicken—no skimping allowed.

  7. Drizzle with honey cream—the BEST part! Don’t hold back, go for it.

  8. Top with chopped pecans, optional.

  9. Serve & enjoy—though you’ll probably want to keep these all to yourself. But sharing is nice, too.

My friends and I absolutely love this jalapeño honey peach jam. It has just enough kick with the jalapeños. Delicious on bread or crackers!
