Chicken and Waffles With Maple Whiskey Cream Gravy

October 4, 2017 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

Do you love chicken and waffles as much as I do? There is just something about that combination of sweet and savory. And when you add a little maple flavored whiskey to the gravy? Well, it just takes chicken and waffles to a whole new level.

Chicken and Waffles with Maple Whiskey Cream Gravy

Recipe update: Crown Royal Maple Whiskey has sadly been discontinued. If you are fortunate enough to run across a bottle – buy it! Otherwise you can substitute Crown Royal Vanilla Whiskey. Perhaps use a bit less whiskey and a bit more maple syrup.

I like to use my cast iron skillet but you can use any heavy skillet.

I meant to make a fruit salad to go with this but by the time I got everything ready I changed my mind. I had a few blackberries and some orange juice in the fridge. Along with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, I decided that was good enough.
