Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. (TIP: If you have a toaster oven, feel free to skip preheating.) Wash and dry produce. • Trim and peel carrot; grate on the largest holes of a box grater over a medium bowl. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. • Thinly slice chicken* crosswise.
• To bowl with carrot, add cabbage, scallion greens, sour cream, half the vinegar, and 1½ tsp sugar (for 4 servings, use all the vinegar and 3 tsp sugar). Season with a big pinch of salt and pepper; toss to combine. • Halve buns. Toast cut sides up directly on oven rack (or in a toaster oven) until golden brown, 2-3 minutes.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add scallion whites; cook for 30 seconds. • Stir in Frank’s Seasoning, Frank's Hot Sauce, and 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings); cook, stirring, until butter has melted. • Add chicken and cook, stirring, until chicken is warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Fill buns with buffalo chicken and a bit of creamy slaw if desired; drizzle with ranch dressing. • Divide sandos between plates and serve with remaining creamy slaw on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
My boyfriend thought the chicken was a bit dry because it was pre-cooked. I thought it was still good but could see what he was saying. We ended up adding some of the ranch in the actual Buffalo sauce because we wanted it creamier and not just a pure hot sauce sauce. I like the idea of the slaw but think it needs to soak for longer. In the 15 minutes it takes to prep the sandwich, it doesn't get wet and moist enough like a typical slaw should. If we could soak it for a few hours then I think it would be great - might do that next time we make this.
This needed a slight modification. I had removed this from my list as it is a spicy meal and I can't have spicy foods due to a fissured tongue. A portion of the chicken was prepared separately to avoid the Frank's red hot. We toasted the buns on the grill with a brush of melted butter. The Sandos and the slaw were absolutely delicious.
I'm not a chicken fan but this Sando may have actually changed my mind. The chicken with the Mike's sauce is OUTSTANDING. Adding the cold slaw seemed a bit "strange" but it added so much to the meal that I can't imagine not having it. Hello Fresh, I take my hat off to the magic meal planner.
These sandwiches I made for lunch and they were well received by the family, however it appears Hello Fresh's idea of spicy is not really spicy. The buffalo sauce was a good flavor and the added crunch of the slaw really made the sandwich. The chicken would be great breaded and then added to the slaw with some buffalo sauce instead of the buns if you're looking for less calories.
I thought this might be too spicy but the cole slaw is deliciously paired with it! It was creamy and complemented the spicy chicken very well.
I have never liked buffalo chicken and I've never found a slaw I actually liked. This, however, was absolutely delicious! I couldn't believe it. I ate every bite!
Yes, another high rating. We loved it! The spice pack was fantastic in flavor & the scent of it while cooking in the pan before adding the chicken was lovely. The Slaw was delicious too. I was SO happy to see the cabbage came sliced for me already. That saved me time & the dressing made with sour cream for the slaw salad was delicious as well and the bun was as if fresh from the bakery. Another favorite dish! I recommend this one to all too.
This was very easy to make, not very spicy though & you would definitely want to make a side of fries or something since the slaw is better served on the sando than on side.
Tasty and easy to make. Slaw was better when I added a little of the ranch to the mix.
Very quick and easy. The slaw was surprisingly tasty for so few ingredients. The pre cooked chicken breast was really good, and made the meal come together in minutes.
