Crispy Rice Waffles

 

Crispy Rice Waffle with Nori// 

2 cups cooked sushi rice, (can be fresh or leftover!) 
Season with 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 tbsp soy sauce, pinch of garlic powder, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger (optional) 
Season rice with all of the above. Feel free to add and subtract ingredients as you prefer. 
Heat waffle iron on high heat, according to manufacturers instructions. 
Scoop about 1/4 of rice per waffle. Press and cook for about 2 minutes while you cut out a circle of nori (this can be sized approximately, and don't waste the excess nori!) 
Lay nori over cooking rice, and it will magically shrink to perfectly fit the rice! 
Cook for about 5 more minutes until the rice is lightly browned and easily removed from the waffle iron.
Original Daring Chicken+ Teriyaki Sauce//
Cook chicken according to packaging instructions. We like to keep it crispy frying in a tablespoon of olive oil. Add a splash of tamari and sprinkle of garlic powder if you want! 

Teriyaki Drizzle//
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil 
1/4  cup rice vinegar 
1/4 cup tamari 
1/4 cup maple syrup 
2 tbsp sriracha 
1 clove garlic, grated 
1 in chunk of ginger, grated 
--Whisk all ingredients together. Add a pinch of sea salt if you wish. 
To Assemble//
Use the rice waffle to layer ingredients in a way that excites you. 
We added, mashed avocado, grated carrots, Daring chicken (torn into bite sized pieces) garnish with pea sprouts, and a few sprigs of cilantro. 
Drizzle generously with the teriyaki sauce, and eat immediately! 
Makes about 6 waffles
