For the Maple Glaze
- 1 cup Member’s Mark™ Organic 100% Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 cup Member’s Mark™ Clover Honey

- 1 tsp Member’s Mark™ Chili Powder

Instructions
- Remove the waffles from the freezer and let them thaw slightly while chicken is cooking.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place desired amount of chicken strips on a prepared baking sheet and cook according to package instructions. For some extra kick, sprinkle both sides of chicken strips with a little Member’s Mark™ Organic Ground Cayenne Pepper and Member’s Mark™ Ground Black Pepper before baking.
- While chicken is cooking, heat the ingredients for the maple glaze in a small saucepan. Whisk to combine and bring to simmer, then turn heat to low and cook for about 5 minutes. Turn heat off.
- When chicken is about 5 minutes from being done, turn pieces over to crisp other side. Toast or bake waffles according to package instructions. Re-heat glaze on low heat to warm slightly.
- Place one waffle on a warm plate and drizzle with some Maple Glaze. Then place 2-3 chicken strips on the waffle and top with more Maple Glaze. For an extra kick of heat, add a dash or two of hot sauce.
