Chicken and Waffles Recipe | Chef Tips

Описание: Jason Hill visits with Executive Chef Greg Stillman (of Rapour, Naples, Catal and French Laundry) to learn how to make chicken and waffles — a popular soul food famous in Los Angeles.

Stillman — a veteran of California restaurants including French Laundry in Yountville, and Catal and Naples in Downtown Disney — came up with his version of Roscoe's chicken and waffles after it was requested by a customer. His gourmet chicken and waffle recipe gets its kick from candied jalapeños and is mellowed out with real maple syrup from Vermont. Of course it's topped off with a delicious piece of Southern fried chicken for the ultimate comfort food.
