There are some food combinations that just don't seem like they'd work but they somehow do. Chocolate and chilis, ice cream and potato chips, grilled cheese and peanut butter (trust me!), and perhaps the most famous,chicken and waffles. Well now, KFC is offering this beloved combination but taken up a few spicy notches with its new Nashville Hot Chicken and Waffles.
You may already know thatKFC has had chicken and wafflesin the past and it's hadNashville Hot Chickensince 2016. But someone at the chain became a benevolent genius and decided to combine the two together, making what I can only imagine is crunchy and soft, sweet and spicy, all in one dish.
You can enjoy this dish one of a few ways: The first is a Nashville Hot Chicken & Waffle Sandwich. This is made up of KFC'sfried chicken, topped with Nashville Hot sauce, placed between two waffles, and served with a side of Mrs. Butterworth's syrup. Yeah just threw that extra topping in out of nowhere, right? But what are waffles without syrup...even if they're already covered in hot sauce. This sandwich will cost $5.99, just FYI.
Another option is the Nashville Hot Chicken & Waffles Platter, which features bone-in chicken or tenders topped with Nashville Hot sauce, served with waffles and a side of Mrs. Butterworth's syrup for $6.49.
You can also make it a Big Basket which include two waffles and two syrups, with a choice of two-piece white meat, three-piece dark meat, or four-piece tenders, with or without Nashville Hot sauce. This will run you about $8.49 and also includes a drink.
