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. Quarter lemon. Thinly slice tomato.

  • Halve grilling cheese, then stand upright on cut edge and halve each piece lengthwise (you’ll have 4 thin planks; 8 planks for 4 servings).

Roast Potatoes & Make Slaw
2
  • Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until golden brown and crispy, 20-25 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, juice from half the lemon, half the ranch dressing, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Taste and season with more salt, pepper, and lemon juice if desired.

Coat Cheese
3
  • In a shallow dish, whisk together tempura batter mix, Frank’s Seasoning Blend, and ⅓ cup cold water (⅔ cup for 4 servings).

  • Place panko in a separate shallow dish.

  • Add grilling cheese to dish with tempura batter; turn to coat. TIP: Use a fork to gently turn the cheese in the batter and transfer to next dish.

  • Transfer cheese to dish with panko and turn to coat, pressing to adhere.

  • Cook until golden brown, 2-4 minutes per side. (TIP: If crust begins to brown too quickly, lower the heat.) Turn off heat; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.

Fry Cheese
4
  • Heat a ⅓-inch layer of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot enough that a pinch of panko sizzles when added to the pan, add coated cheese. Cook until golden brown, 2-4 minutes per side. TIP: If crust begins to brown too quickly, lower the heat.

  • Turn off heat; transfer cheese to a paper-towel-lined plate.

  • Divide sandwiches and roasted potato wedges between plates. Serve with remaining blue cheese dressing and remaining ranch as dippers. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.

Assemble Sandwiches
5
  • Halve and toast buns. Spread cut sides of buns with as much blue cheese dressing as you like.

  • Arrange two pieces of crispy cheese side by side on cut sides of half the buns. Top cheese with as much slawBuffalo sauce, and tomato as you like. Close to form sandwichesTIP: If you prefer a less loaded sandwich, save any extra slaw, sauce, and tomato to serve on the side!

  • Divide sandwiches and roasted potato wedges between plates. Serve with remaining blue cheese dressing and remaining ranch as dippers. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
