- 2 tablespoons salt
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract

Directions
To make Sage Fried Chicken:
Dip and coat chicken breast in egg then cornflake mixture. Deep-fry for 5 to 6 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
To make Bacon Waffles:
Preheat waffle iron and coat well with nonstick spray. In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients and set aside. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the buttermilk, milk, vanilla and butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring together lightly, leaving the batter slightly lumpy. Using a 6-ounce ladle, pour the batter in the center of the hot waffle iron. Place 2 slices of cooked bacon diagonally over each other and the waffle, making an X shape. Close the waffle iron lid. Cook until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove to cutting board and cut into 4 squares. Place 2 waffle squares side by side on a plate then stack remaining 2 in the center on top of the first 2. Place the chicken breasts on top of this and secure in the center of each chicken breast with a wooden skewer. Top with warm maple syrup. Garnish with fried leeks and a 12-inch rosemary sprig.

I was more interested in making the bacon waffles than the chicken. I found the batter to be virtually tasteless. The bacon helped, but not by much. However, I made a sweet potato waffle with bacon which turned out very good. Now I have a bowl of batter that I need to work on, or dump.
