Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Bacon Cheddar Waffle Sandwich

It goes without saying that chicken and waffles are a hot item right now. So why is it that I seldom see chicken between the waffles? And furthermore, why has it taken so long for someone to develop a bacon cheddar waffle?! This recipe from Cooking with Janica is about as tasty as it gets from the waffles down to the chicken each ingredient in this recipe truly shines.

Ultimate Bacon Ranch Fried Chicken Club Sandwich

OK, so ask yourself, what makes a sandwich "the ultimate," in your book? Is it fresh cut ingredients like tomato and lettuce? Double stacked cheeses like colby jack on top of blue cheese? Is it perhaps a crunchy buttermilk fried chicken base? Bacon? a Fried Egg? or the pretzel bun?! Or perhaps, it's the combination of all those things together! The Sandwiches Expert, MacKenzie Smith, from About, strikes again with another insanely good chicken sandwich.

This recipe, also from About, features a mixture of light and dark meat chicken, deep fried and placed on a french baguette, topped with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayo! It also goes exceptionally well with a course creole mustard!
