How To Make 'Iron Chef' Marcus Samuelsson's Streetbird Chicken & Waffles Recipe

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: low-fat yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Low-fat yogurt reduces calories while maintaining tanginess.

vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier but can be more expensive.

maple syrup

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: corn syrup

Honey provides natural sweetness with fewer additives.

fried chicken

🥗Healthier: baked chicken

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Baked chicken is lower in fat and can be more economical.

Pour the waffle batter into the waffle maker and push it down.

Use bone-in chicken thighs for juiciness instead of dry meat.

Add a chicken shake spice blend to the chicken and drizzle hot honey over it.

In the hot honey, add pineapple and peanuts for texture.

Dust the finished dish with some additional seasoning.

Garnish with cilantro for a healthy touch.

Serve the chicken and waffles hot and encourage eating with hands for a messy experience.
