Step 1
Place the chicken thighs in a bowl, pour in the buttermilk, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Step 3
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and dredge each piece in the seasoned flour, pressing to coat well.
Step 4
Heat about 1 1/2 inches of oil in a heavy skillet to 350°F and fry the chicken in batches until deeply golden and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F with no pink remaining, about 12-15 minutes per batch; drain on a wire rack.
Step 5
Meanwhile, prepare the waffle mix according to the package directions, whisking in the melted butter, and cook in a waffle iron until golden and crisp.
Step 6
Plate a waffle topped with a piece or two of fried chicken.
Step 7
Drizzle generously with warm maple syrup before serving.
