Chicken and Waffle Casserole

My wheels started turning one day as I was making my recipe for Maple Waffle Breakfast Casserole how it would be to try a Chicken and Waffle Casserole.

I sure do love chicken and waffles!

Well there was only one way to find out…

And let me just tell ya, it was every bit as fabulous as I had hoped 🙂

Here is how to male Chicken and Waffle Casserole

The chicken part of this dish is a 25 ounce bag of frozen popcorn chicken.

Bake them in the oven according to the package directions.

And cut the bigger pieces of popcorn chicken in half.

Then toast up 8 Eggo waffles, cut them up and put them into a greased 9×13 casserole dish.

Also add the cooked popcorn chicken and shredded cheese.

Next whisk together 8 eggs, 1 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, and 1/4 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce.

Pour this mixture into the casserole dish with the chicken, waffles, and cheese.

Take the back side of a fork and gently press the waffles into the egg mixture.

Now this amazing casserole is ready for the oven.

It will bake in a 375 degree oven for 45 minutes.

A little tip…make sure the oven has cooled down from baking the popcorn chicken.

My chicken baked in a 450 degree oven so just be sure your oven has had time to cool to 375.
