Sweet and Spicy Buttermilk Breaded Chicken Recipe

Sharing is caring!

I participated in Mom Blog Tour Natural Products Expo West (#MomBlogTourFF) on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers. I received Crown Maple products to facilitate my review, but my opinions and creative content are my own. #crownmaple #estateproduced #beexceptional #MomBlogTourFF

For this deliciously sweet and spicy chicken thigh recipe I leaned heavily on the high quality of Crown Maple syrup to properly enhance the flavors of my dish.

 I met with Crown Maple representatives while at the Natural Products Expo West last March. I learned a lot about why Crown Maple syrup tastes so good and most importantly I got to taste and judge it for myself.

Starting with the best

I received a lot of products from Crown Maple, for which I am grateful.  I won’t be getting the same syrup I used to anymore.

My husband agrees. Eric said the Crown Maple product was his favorite of everything he got to try from this blog tour.  He was skeptical when I told him to taste a spoonful of just the maple syrup, but then his face lit up, just like mine did.

The Crown Maple Story

Crown Maple refers to the crown of the maple trees that produce their syrup.  The size of the crown is an indication of how good the syrup will be.  From their 800 acre organic maple farm in the Hudson Valley, Crown Maple has produced distinctive, quality product since 2010.  The select quality syrup produced by the estate set forth a new standard with their blend of nature, craftsmanship and technology.
