We're a couple weeks into the school year and our house is already buzzing with after-school activities, sports, and jam-packed weekends. This means I have less time to be in the kitchen preparing meals and weekend snack–but that doesn't mean I still don't want to serve memorable food. To make it all work, I try to plan quicker meals and get the family to help out in the prep and cooking. This weekend, we all pitched in and made these DELICIOUS chicken and waffle sliders! The chicken and waffle craze is totally legit.
These two-bite chicken and waffle sliders are so easy to make and are perfect to serve a crowd. Use waffle fries for a fun twist on the traditional!
They were bursting with flavor and a mini meal that we all enjoyed. We used tomatoes and jalapeños growing in our garden which added a nice fresh flavor. Alexia Seasoned Waffle Cut Fries sandwiched slices of breaded chicken, topped with a maple-mayo (don't skip this part!), fresh tomato, and a slice of jalapeño (which added just the perfect amount of spice).

We enjoyed them during lunch on the weekend, but they would be great anytime. Serve them with a salad for dinner, or on a big platter while watching football.

The seasoning on the fries was perfect. The whole slider had such interesting, fresh, flavor. Not only is this recipe simple to make, it's jammed packed with flavor!

Hi Tori, I just discovered your blog because I also participated in the Alexia potato recipe project. I can't believe it took me this long.... I too am a cocktail-loving marketing professional with a perchance for creative projects. I started my blog in 2007, just about the same time as you.
Excited to have found you!
