Steps:

• Marinate the chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the chicken tenders, buttermilk, 1 tablespoon salt, McCormick® Smoked Paprika, McCormick® Chili Powder, 1 tablespoon McCormick® Onion Powder, and 1 tablespoon McCormick® Garlic Powder. Mix until the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
• Make the slaw: In a medium bowl, toss together the red and green cabbage, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
• Make the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C).
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the waffle mix, water, and melted butter until smooth.
• Ladle the batter into the waffle iron and cook until golden brown. Remove and cut the waffle in half. Repeat with the remaining batter; you should have 4 full waffles. Keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
• Fry the chicken: Fill a medium pot halfway with vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 teaspoons salt, 2 teaspoons McCormick® Onion Powder, 2 teaspoons McCormick® Garlic Powder, the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and black pepper.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth.
• Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Toss the tenders in the flour mixture until fully coated. Coat in the egg mixture, then again in the flour mixture.
• Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, fry the chicken in the hot oil until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Add the Frank's® RedHot® sauce to a medium bowl. Toss the chicken in the sauce until fully coated.
• Assemble the tacos: Place a chicken tender on a waffle half. Top with the slaw, green onions, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Secure with a skewer, then repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve warm.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, cream, cayenne pepper, 1 tablespoon salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. In a paper bag, shake together the flour, cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon salt.
• Dip the chicken into the beaten egg mixture, then place into the flour mixture and shake to coat. Place the breaded chicken onto a wire rack; do not stack. Let the chicken rest for 20 minutes to allow the coating to set.
• Heat about 3 inches of oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In small batches, fry chicken 5 to 8 minutes until golden brown. Remove chicken, and drain on paper towels. Set aside or keep warm in a a low oven.
• Combine the mayonnaise, maple syrup, horseradish, and mustard powder in a medium bowl. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
• To assemble the sandwiches: Place 4 waffles on a cookie sheet, top each waffle with 2 chicken tenders, 3 slices of bacon, and 2 slices of Cheddar. Broil the sandwich for a 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese melts. Spread 3 tablespoons of the maple mayonnaise on the remaining 4 waffles and place on top of the sandwich.

Steps:

• Top warm waffles with taco meat, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, salsa and cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Place the chicken in the buttermilk mixture and toss to coat, then cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours, up to overnight.
• Make the spicy maple syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the maple syrup and hot sauce. Bring to a simmer, then cook for about 5 minutes, or until fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool. Set aside until ready to serve, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
• Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot until it reaches 325°F (170°C). Line 2 baking sheets with paper towels and set nearby.
• Working in batches, fry the quartered waffles in the hot oil for about 30 seconds on each side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and season with salt.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, remaining 2 teaspoons of black pepper, chili powder, paprika, and garlic powder. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs well.
• Set a wire rack inside a baking sheet.
• Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and, working in batches, coat the chicken in the flour mixture, then in the eggs, then in the flour again. Place on the wire rack.
• Working in batches, fry the chicken in the hot oil for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the outside. Season with additional salt if desired. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
• Turn the oven to broil.
• Arrange the fried waffles on a baking sheet, overlapping slightly. Top with the chicken and cheddar cheese.
• Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling. Watch carefully so it does not burn.
