Breakfast Wednesday: Orange Chicken and Waffles

Lucus Keppel — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 17:30:12 +0000

Still have some whole wheat pancake mix left over from last week? Let’s use it to make waffles! But, what shall we top the waffles with? Oh! Orange sauce and pulled chicken!

This takes a VERY LITTLE amount of prep work. If you throw the chicken into the oven when you get up, it’ll be done by the end of your shower!

Ingredients: (serves 2-4)
4 half chicken-breasts
2 cups Orange Juice
2-4 oranges (if on hand)
2 Tbs flour
2 Tbs butter

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375
Put the chicken breasts in a lightly oiled oven-proof pan – either glass or metal will be fine.
Cover chicken with 1 cup of OJ
Bake chicken for 30-45 minutes, until white all the way through
Remove chicken to stand mixer with paddle attachment. Run on low speed for about 1 minute (or to desired shred level) to shred chicken.
Melt butter in a small sauce pan
Whisk in flour until you have a hot, bubbly roux
Stir in OJ and any leftover juice from the chicken pan
Heat until thick on spoon, about 10 minutes, stirring regularly.
Optional: slice oranges, remove peel and any pith that comes with the peel
Make waffles according to package directions; top with orange slice, chicken, and sauce.

Today, the new KNOM Morning Show with Dayneé and Lucus made breakfast for Nome!

Numbers were few, but appetites were great!

Dayneé cooked scrambled eggs with mixed veggies, and it was a delicious meal to consume together. Megan and Katie from CAMP joined the morning show to give nutritional information, and let Lucus know that he needed to eat breakfast more frequently, as well as sleeping enough.

Megan and Katie, right before their big studio A debut!

The fancy blue tablecloth shows how serious we are about this Breakfast Wednesday – and to make things better, we plan on continuing the trend next week, with Lucus cooking and Dayneé hosting! So, even if mornings make you sleepy, here’s to a great breakfast tradition continuing – and we’ll have coffee or tea no matter the weather.
