Cooking Steps
Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
Trim and discard woody bottom ends from asparagus. (Save carrots for another use.)
Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, half the Fry Seasoning (all for 4 servings), salt, and pepper.
Roast on top rack until golden brown and tender, 20-25 minutes.
Swap in asparagus for carrots; roast until lightly browned and tender, 10-12 minutes.
While carrots roast, place potatoes in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes.
Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid; drain and return potatoes to pot. Mash with one packet sour cream (two packets for 4 servings) and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until smooth, adding splashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. (You’ll use more sour cream in the next step.)
Stir in half the scallion greens. Season with salt and pepper. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
Meanwhile, pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper.
Place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a shallow microwave-safe dish. Microwave until melted, 30 seconds. Stir in panko, Frank’s Seasoning Blend, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Brush one packet sour cream (two packets for 4) onto tops of chicken in a thin layer. (You’ll use the remaining sour cream in the next step.) Working one piece at a time, dip brushed sides of chicken into panko mixture, pressing to adhere (no need to coat the undersides).
Place chicken, coated sides up, on a second, lightly oiled baking sheet.
Roast chicken on middle rack until browned and cooked through, 15-18 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest.
While chicken cooks, in a small bowl, combine blue cheese dressing, scallion whites, and remaining sour cream.
Divide carrots, mashed potatoes, and chicken between plates. Top chicken with blue cheese sauce, remaining scallion greens, and hot sauce if desired. Serve with any remaining blue cheese sauce on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
I can see why this is in the Hall of Fame - delicious, easy, and fun to cook. The spicy panko coating for the chicken, plus the blue cheese sauce and extra hot sauce, made it especially awesome.
There's a lot of prep work. I don't enjoy cooking and thought Hello Fresh would be a good option but didn't realize how time consuming my selections are. The food taste good and this chicken has a kick. Love the taste but not all the time in prep.
The way it's made crispy is great! I am learning new tricks with every recipe. Thank you
We chose asparagus over the carrots; a much better choice. The spice for the chicken was very good. The mashed potatoes were bland.
MY picky 13 year old loved the chicken and mashed potatoes! The carrots were a little burnt, so lower cooking time. Just keep watch. So simple!
Despite missing ingredients (which I have been compensated for) this was a good meal. The chicken was very tender.
Loved this so much. The breading did fall off very easily. I don't normally like blue cheese anything and this was delicious.
Yummy! What's not to love about spicy chicken and mashed potatoes? Carrots are a bonus. Produce was nice and fresh.
This chicken was moist and delicious, we normally don't eat carrots we will from now on.
The Buffalo spicing could have been spicier. Might be biased, having grown up 70 minutes from Buffalo.
