    In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add chicken; cook 6 to 8 minutes, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in centre and coating is golden brown. Meanwhile, in another small bowl, stir together Maple-Bourbon Butter ingredients until smooth. Set aside.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Make Ahead: Make these cute snacks or appetizers up to 1 day ahead of time and reheat them in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes. Spread Maple-Bourbon Butter on waffles, and assemble just before serving.
  • Tip 2
    Variation: Beer lovers may want to choose an ale or a more robust beer for these waffles. Those who prefer a milder taste should use light beer.
