INGREDIENT NOTES:
CHICKEN BREAST:
- This is the main component that cooks quickly and gives low fat. It marinates well and gives the best juicy taste after cooking. Use equally sized pieces for better cooking. You may use boneless turkey breast as per your preference.
SUGAR-FREE SWEET CHILI SAUCE:
- It includes a signature sweet and spicy taste in the chicken. We use it to keep the recipe low in sugar and calories. Sweet chili sauce makes a glaze on the chicken after cooking and includes tastes. You may use reduced-sugar sweet chili sauce as an alternative.
LIME JUICE:
- This juice gives a bright citrus taste that maintains the sweetness of chili sauce. Lime juice has acidity that makes the chicken tender while marinating. You may use fresh lemon juice as another idea.
GARLIC POWDER:
- Garlic powder provides a rich garlic taste that blends well into the marinade. It coats the chicken properly without increasing extra moisture. You may use minced garlic cloves as a substitute.
WHITE WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR:
- It makes the waffle cones lighter & keeps them soft. Utilize all-purpose flour for a softer texture in the recipe.
UNSWEETENED ALMOND MILK:
- Almond milk keeps the waffle batter light and reduces calories. It blends well with other ingredients. Include skim milk if you are not using unsweetened almond milk.
COOKING SPRAY:
- We use it to coat the waffle cone maker so the batter does not stick. It helps to remove the cones easily and keep the shape as well. You may brush the cone maker with canola oil, avocado oil, or vegetable oil as per your choice.
