Meals on Wheels. I just finished cooking mac-n-cheese and fried chicken & waffles and packed up to go to Michelle & Becky's house. I wanted to enjoy some soul food with my soul sisters. Since they were busy during my Soul Food Friday Dinner Party, I offered to bring dinner to their house. It was finger-licking good!
I adapted Tyler Florence's Mac-N-Cheese with Bacon and Cheese recipe by using thick cut bacon and a mixture of mild cheddar, Monterey Jack, Swiss and Gruyere cheese. I also adapted Emeril Lagasse's Fried Chicken & Buttermilk Waffles by using skinless and boneless chicken breast for quick cooking and substituting yeast and milk instead of buttermilk and baking powder. It was a success! The fried chicken was so moist that it melted in your mouth. We drizzled maple syrup over the fried chicken & waffles. I loved the combination of the salty crunchiness of the fried chicken, sweet crispiness of the waffle and gooey creaminess of the mac-n-cheese. Party in the mouth!
To top off the night, the Cap won against the Rangers in Game 1 of the NHL playoffs! Go Caps! Go Red!
