Brunch meets comfort food in this sweet and savoury creation: soft French toast, crispy fried chicken, pickled onions and maple syrup. Radish sprouts add a fresh, slightly peppery finish.

Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need:

• 4 slices of your favourite Mie et Cie bread
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup (125 ml) milk
• ½ tsp (2.5 ml) vanilla
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) butter
• 2 pieces boneless fried chicken, hot
• ¼ cup (60 ml) pickled red onions
• ½ cup (125 ml) radish sprouts

Make sure you have all the ingredients on hand before you begin preparing the recipe.

Directions

1. Whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla in a shallow bowl.
   
2. Dip the Mie et Cie bread slices into the mixture.
3. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the bread for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden.
4. Place the hot fried chicken on the French toast.
5. Top with pickled onions and radish sprouts.
6. Drizzle with maple syrup just before serving.

Chef's Tips

To keep the chicken crisp, add the maple syrup just before serving rather than while assembling.
