Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Trim and discard root end from lettuce. Halve two large leaves crosswise; set aside until ready to serve (these will go on your sandwiches!); chop remaining leaves into bite-size pieces.

Roast Potatoes
2
  • Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, half the Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper. (If baking sheet is too crowded for 4 servings, divide potatoes between two sheets; roast on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)

  • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

Cook Bacon
3
  • Halve bacon* lengthwise; slice crosswise into ¼-inch pieces.

  • Place bacon in a small dry pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until browned and crispy, 6-8 minutes.

  • Turn off heat; using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a small bowl. Discard all but 1 TBSP bacon fat (2 TBSP for 4 servings) from pot. TIP: If there's not enough bacon fat, add a drizzle of oil!

Make Jam
4
  • Add onion to pot with bacon fat (off heat); stir to combine, allowing residual heat to soften onion slightly and scraping up any browned bits stuck to bottom of pot, 30 seconds. Return pot to medium-high heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, 4-6 minutes.

  • Add Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning and brown sugar; stir, breaking up any clumps, until combined. Stir in vinegar, jam, and 1 cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings). Bring to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced and jammy, 8-12 minutes.

  • Stir in bacon until combined. Transfer bacon jam to bowl used for bacon; set aside to cool.

Cook Chicken
5
  • While jam cooks, pat chicken* dry with paper towels (if cutlets are on the thicker side, place between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet or rolling pin to flatten). Season all over with remaining Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper.

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side. TIP: If chicken is browning too quickly, reduce heat and cover pan with lid.

Toss Salad
6
  • In a medium bowl, toss chopped lettuce with as much dressing as you like; season with salt and pepper.

  • In a second small bowl, combine ketchup and mayonnaise (skip this if you prefer plain mayonnaise on your sandwich!).

Finish & Serve
7
  • Halve and toast buns.

  • Spread mayo-ketchup sauce on cut sides of buns if desired (or, if you prefer, serve on the side for dipping!). Fill buns with bacon jam, chicken, and reserved lettuce leaves.

  • Divide sandwiches, potato wedges, and salad between plates and serve with any remaining sauce on the side.

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Mar 2026
  • Flavor: Many loved the bacon jam, calling it "incredible" and "to die for." Some found the chicken bland; consider extra seasoning.
  • Ease of prep: Several noted it was time-consuming, especially the jam. Start the jam early; it may take longer than expected to thicken.
  • Suggestions: For a flavor boost, try adding cheese to the sandwich. Consider baking the chicken instead of pan-frying for easier prep.
  • Leftovers: The sandwich reheats well, with some finding the flavors even better the next day.
  • Texture: A few struggled to achieve the right jam consistency. Reduce water or add a cornstarch slurry to thicken if needed.
