We send juicy fully cooked chicken breasts along with a double shot of savory heat: Frank’s Seasoning Blend and Frank’s Hot Sauce. You’ll pile warm seasoned chicken draped with melted mozzarella on a pillowy potato bun with juicy tomato and spicy mayo for a delectably saucy Buffalo-style sandwich that’s sure to electrify your taste buds in the best possible way!

Cooking Steps

1

• Wash and dry produce.

2

• Halve buns; toast until golden brown. Thinly slice tomato into rounds.

3

• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and ¼ tsp Frank’s Seasoning Blend (½ tsp for 4 servings). Stir until well combined.

4

• Pat chicken dry with paper towels. (TIP: To get even more Buffalo flavor in every bite, carefully cut each chicken breast horizontally into two thin cutlets.) Season all over with remaining Frank’s Seasoning Blend.

5

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until slightly warmed, 1-2 minutes per side. Stir in Frank’s hot sauce and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) until butter has melted; baste chicken with sauce.

6

• Top chicken with mozzarella. Cover and cook until cheese melts, 1-2 minutes.

7

• Spread cut sides of toasted buns with spicy mayo. Fill buns with cheesy chicken, any remaining sauce in pan, and tomato. Divide melts between plates and serve.

Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

My experience with Buffalo seasoning is that it's mostly heat without flavor, so this was a pleasant surprise. I only used half of the seasoning and sauce because I was wary of it, but we could definitely have handled a bit more than I used.

Very tasty and spicy. Only downfall is it was messy. The chicken slid around a lot with the sauce and juicy tomato on the bun.

I didn't pay close attention to the hot mixture, so this was good regardless of my mess up (I cooked the mayo mixture instead of using it as a spread, whoops, then I forgot the siracha!)

I thought portions were good but my family LOVED this recipe and wished for a larger piece of chicken.

Made this for dinner with sides of fresh native corn and green beans. Delicious and filling dinner that was super easy to prepare.

Good taste, not too hot, and is the quickest thing I have ever made w/ HF. Chicken breasts were a bit thick to bite into.

Great lunch item - was nice that you could control how much seasoning you wanted. We added a pasta salad because the sandwiches were pretty small

We didn't receive the recipe card for this meal (we received a recipe for a different meal) but we were able to download it and print it from the website. Besides that, it was an excellent sandwich! We enjoyed it, and being a quick meal made it even better!

This was disappointing flavor wise. Yes, I prefer spicy things but I think it needed a bit of oompf. Not really enough sauce and the shredded cheese made a mess. I would have preferred sliced cheese so that it melts better on the sandwich.
