THANKS FOR WATCHING!

in the kitchen with Chef Carol. Guys, God bless you. Thank you to all my YouTube subscribers. God bless you. Love you. Uh, today I’m going to be doing homemade chicken and waffles. It’s creamy chicken and waffles. And I already have my chicken on boiling. I had a video uh for my prep work. You can watch that. That’s already up and going. But to my chicken, I’m going to go ahead and add some celery. I already have my onion in. I’m going to add some celery and a potato just to thicken up my uh sauce for my uh chicken and waffles. So, I’m just going to go ahead and cut down some celery so I can add that to my pot. I’m going to go ahead and cut it down in small size pieces, you know, so it’ll cook evenly in the pot with my sauce. And I’m going to add the potato just to give it a thickening agent for my creaminess for my sauce. So when it goes on top of the waffles, it be nice and thick enough to uh add into uh the dish. So I’m just going to cut my potatoes. I’m going to dice them down a nice small square so they won’t be too thick in the dish. I added two onions to this dish to my chicken. I’ll show you. My chicken is cooking. It’s coming together. I have uh one and a half, one small, one medium size potato, and one real tiny potatoes. These are the red potatoes that I’m using. I already washed them off, you know, rinsed them down and all. So, we’ll just add that to the pot here to go with my uh chicken, homemade chicken and gravy. God bless me with a uh waffle maker. Almost done with my kitchen. All I have to do yet is get my microwave. Uh takes time, but I’m getting there. Okay. So, I have one and a half of a potato and I have my celery. I already have my uh onion. I put two onions as I said in with the chicken. Uh and it’s cooking now nice and slow. So, I’ll get this in the pot to get that boiling down. Get that nice and tender. And with the chicken, the chicken is I let cook already for like what 45 minutes. So, let’s get this started, guys. and then the pot. Okay guys, here’s my chicken for my chicken and waffles already started boiling down. I’m going to show you how it’s cooking. That’s a nice thick piece there. The wing here. I went ahead and added some broth to that. After sautéing my chicken, it made it golden brown on each side. As you can see, it’s cooked down some. So, now I’m just going to go ahead and add my potatoes. I already had my onion and I let that cook down. I’m going to add my potato and my uh celery to that as well. And let that cook down. Let that let them uh potatoes and that celery cook down in that meat. And then I can go ahead and uh once the chicken start falling off the bones, I can go ahead and uh separate the bones and uh begin to make the uh nice little sauce, cream sauce to go with my chicken. And then that part’s done. So I can go ahead and get my batter ready for my waffles. So, I’m going to go ahead and just place that lid back on that chicken and uh let that finish cooking. My temperature is on five and uh we’re going to let that just boil down and uh slow process, but it’s worth it. And as I said, I have a video with the prep uh cutting up my chicken, cleaning my chicken, and uh getting it prepared to go in the pot. So, let’s let this chicken cook down, guys, and let it do what it do. Okay, guys. I’m going to go ahead and get my batter started. I’m going to do my dry mixture first and then I’m going to go ahead and do my liquid mixture and put in together. Whip that up. So when the chicken is done, I can actually go ahead and u make my waffles. I have company coming over this evening. So we’re going to enjoy some good old creamy chicken and waffles. So let’s get started, guys. Okay, for my dry mixture, I’m going to add I need my glasses. Let me put my glasses on. I need to see. I’m going to be adding 1 tbspoon of baking powder, 2 3 cups of flour. Okay, I’m going to add Two tablespoons of sugar. I’m going to add a half a teaspoon of salt. And then I’m going to go ahead and mix it together. I’m might have to make this work with the butter that I have. So, we’re going to see because I’m also going to be using some liquid coconut oil. So, it should come out perfect. So, let’s set this aside my dry ingredients and get ready to mix up my liquid ingredients. Okay. To that, I’m going to add for my liquid uh mixture, I’m going to add a cup of milk. I have 2% milk. one cup of that. I’m going to add a tablespoon of the coconut oil. Maybe a half a tablespoon of coconut oil. That’s going to give it some good flavor as well for my waffles. I have small eggs, so I’m going to use two of those cuz they’re really small. So, if you have the large egg, you only need one. Okay. I’m going to add my butter. It should be melted, but I’m going to go ahead and add it in as it is. And I’m just going to mix that together. You can add vanilla. I don’t have any, so it’ll be okay without. I already added my sugar to my flour already. So, we just mix that together. Blend that together real good. Set these aside here. I’m going to check on my chicken. Doing good. Okay, we’re just going to make sure that this is mixed good. I’m going to bring back over my flour here. I’m not sure if I added my sugar, guys. Did I add my sugar? I don’t remember adding my sugar. So, I’m going to go ahead and add my sugar. I don’t remember putting my sugar in. And it would be a waste to not have your sugar in your waffles. So, I’m going to add half of a u half a cup of uh sugar into that in case there’s already sugar in there. So, I’m just going to go ahead and add that to the wet ingredients. I don’t remember opening my sugar and putting it in there. So, yeah, we got to have that. Let’s add our sugar in there. All right. So now we’ll go ahead and we’ll put our wet with our dry and we’ll start mixing that together. Let’s get that batter going. If I need more milk, I’ll add more. But for right now, I’m going this route. Let’s get that butter down in there. And I’ll just add another cup of milk to that. Let’s add another cup of milk. So that’s two cups of milk. Get it off the sides. Get this batter going. [Applause] guys. We’re going to get that mixed together and I’ll be back. Okay, I had my batter all nice and mixed in. It took some arm work, but yep, we got it done. Just get that thing mixed in there. Continue to mix. I’m going to cover it with a lid and I’m going to wait for my chicken to get done and then I could begin my waffles. Nice mixture there, guys. Ready to go. That homemade chicken and waffles, guys. Like I said, I have to get a microwave. That’s why my butter didn’t wasn’t able to melt my butter down. As soon as I get my uh microwave in, I’ll be fine. I’ll be on the road then. So, it’s it even makes it even more spacey now with, you know, the space I I got in the section here. So, I decided to go ahead and do my chicken and waffles so I can, you know, enjoy the uh room. in case one of the waffles don’t come out right, which I’m praying that everything comes together. So, here’s my batter for my chicken and waffle. I’m just going to place a lid on that, set that in the fridge, and wait for uh my chicken to get done. I’m going to place this in the refrigerator, guys, and uh wait for my chicken to boil down. I’m going show you how I’m going to make the cream sauce for that and um get this meal rolling. Kind of slow today. Kind of down a little bit. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s the weather. But, you know, God is good. I’m going to make a nice meal today. Hopefully, my sisters, she’ll come over or, you know, I had a family member say they were going to may make it over to stop by today. So hopefully if they see my first video, they may, you know, even if they do see the video, they may still decide to uh show up this evening. So we’re going to let my chicken finish cooking. Ooh, look at the flour on there. We’re going to let my chicken continue to cook and uh I’m going to show you how I’m going to make a cream sauce to go with that. Get my waffles on. I’m going to do one at a time. I’m going to do a tester. I’m going to let you see that tester to see how the waffle turns out. If it comes out good, that’s what we’re having today. If it doesn’t come out right, we’re going to have some rice with chicken. So, guys, let’s let that chicken cook down and I’ll be back. Guys, I’m going to go ahead and check my chicken. You can see my chicken is falling apart. Get the bones out. I want nice chunky pieces of that uh chicken in there. But I also want my potatoes to be cooked down, which didn’t take long. My celery is nice and cooked in. So, I’m going to go ahead and let this cool off a little bit while I take out my bones. See how the bones are? The chicken is loosening up off that uh bone there. So, I can actually go ahead and separate that. So, I can go ahead and make a gravy. I’m going to show you how I’m going to add the mixture for my gravy. See that bone’s ready to come out. I just place that in a bowl. Get all those bones out of there. There’s another one. Get all the bones out. You can keep the skin in, skin off. It doesn’t matter. It’s up to you if you decide to make this dish. Here, another bone. Take all the bones out. You see that chicken is falling right apart. So, my chicken is done. The broth is nice and brown there. So, it’s going to be a nice gravy. And I can go ahead and get my waffles started. Another bone. Those bones out of there. that gristle out. Okay, looking good. Another bone here. I don’t actually have to got that gristle. We get that out of there. Looking good. Take some of that fat out. Cut this in half here. So, we’ll get chunks of chicken as well as, you know, the shredded chicken. So, I’m going to go ahead and turn that off. Show you how I’m going to make a light creamy gravy. And um I’m going to turn this down to low. Until then, chicken looking good. So, let’s make this gravy, guys. Get that in the pan and then I’m going to make my waffles. Okay, for my gravy, I have a half of a cup of flour. I’m just going to put in the measuring cup. I have some beef broth. I’m just going to add a cup of beef broth to that. And I’m just going to mix it together. it nice and creamy as well as give it some flavor for that gravy. I know it’s beef broth. You could use beef broth. Chicken broth. Chicken broth would go great, but I have beef broth, so that’s what I’m using. Okay. To that, I’m going to add just a tad bit of pepper. Maybe a teaspoon of pepper. I’m going to add some slap your mama. Just a pinch of slap your mama. Just a pinch. And a pinch of salt. Stir that in. And I’m going to add some cold water. Just a half a cup of cold water as well. Mix that together. Blend that together there real good. [Music] And I’m going to go over and add that to the chicken. Okay. So now I’m just going to go ahead and add that flour and water mixture right into the pan with the chicken. It’s a light cream sauce. Fast, easy way. And I have a gravy already. I’m going to give this a taste. I have my potatoes, celery, and onions in there. See another piece of bone in there. We can just take that right out. Nice. Tiny piece. Tiny bone. And I have my chicken and gravy. Make sure. I’m going to give this a taste, guys. To make sure that it’s seasoned good. I’m just going to give it a nice taste. Oh my goodness. Doesn’t need any more seasoning in there. That chicken tasting good. Nice chicken and gravy to go with my uh go on top of my waffles. So, I’m just going to place the lid back on there. Keep that on low. And I’m going to go and start my waffles and see how this turns out. Okay, let me mix my batter up some more. It’s nice and thick. Got my waffle iron on to get hot. Got that nice mixture there. You can see I’m going to do one or two to show you how it comes out. I have enough to make my grandkid some waffles when they come over this weekend. to spend time with grandma. So, let’s get our waffle maker down. We’ll get the oil in the pan. Nice and hot. All that down so the waffles won’t stick. And now I can go ahead and add me a waffle in there and get this ball rolling. I’m just going to take one scoop of the maker here mixture. Get that in there. It’s one and a half. Let’s close that bad boy up and wait for it to get done. I’m excited for this here. We’ll wait for that button to turn green. Hopefully this this uh uh waffle maker isn’t broke. So, we’re going to see how it turns out. Guys, I’m waiting for the light to turn green. That’s when I know my waffle is done. Going to set that aside.
