September is National Chicken Month. Although we love chicken in a variety of ways, our favorite kind is definitely fried! Here are two fried chicken dishes we love!
Waffle and Chicken – Taste of Belgium (Cincinnati, Ohio)
At Taste of Belgium, the waffle comes first! The Bistro is famous for their Liege-style waffles; made from dough rather than batter, these waffles are thick and sweet. Paired with a breaded chicken cutlet and covered in hot sauce and maple syrup, this is not your average chicken and waffle meal. We recommend ordering with a side of the Belgian Frites!
Honey Butter Fried Chicken – Honey Butter Fried Chicken (Chicago, Illinois)
Although their restaurant just opened this past weekend, Josh Kulp and Christine Cikowski have been serving their honey-butter topped fried chicken via the underground-restaurant Sunday Dinner Club. Their new brick-and-mortar restaurant features the namesake chicken, market-driven vegetable sides, biscuits, and desserts. The chicken is brined in salt, sugar, citrus, and spices, double-battered in buttermilk and seasoned flour, fried to perfection, topped with paprika salt, and finished with a dollop of sweet honey butter.
