Ingredients
  

FOR WAFFLES:

  • ½ cup flour
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 3 strips bacon cooked & crumbled
  • ¼ cup baking soda
  • ½ cup half & half
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • pinch salt

FOR CHICKEN:

FOR HOLLANDAISE:

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a skillet over high heat, fry the bacon until crisp, then remove from the pan. Reserve the grease. Crumble the bacon when cooled.
  • Season the thinly sliced chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Using the remaining bacon grease, cook the chicken until no longer pink in the center - about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • While the chicken cooks, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt, then slowly add the creamer, egg, melted butter, and maple syrup until a thick batter forms. In a preheated waffle iron, pour 3/4 cups of the batter, then close the iron and cook 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • As the waffles cook, melt the butter in a skillet over low heat. Whisk the egg yolks in a small bowl and, while whisking constantly, pour the yolks into the butter. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper and season with salt.
  • Assemble the waffle by placing the chicken breast on top, cover it with hollandaise sauce (and a fried egg if you so desire). Serve hot and enjoy!
