Crispy Frank’s RedHot®-Spiced Chicken
with Blue Cheese Sauce, Scallion Mashed Potatoes & Carrots
- Eggs
- Milk
- Wheat
Are you the type of person who only goes to sporting events because of the possibility that Buffalo wings may be present? We’re with you, and that’s why our chefs took the beloved dish from messy app to epic weeknight dinner. First, chicken is brushed with sour cream, then coated in a Buffalo-spiced panko mixture. It’s roasted to juicy, crunchy perfection, then drizzled with creamy blue cheese sauce. Oh, and did we mention there are roasted carrots and sour cream and scallion mashed potatoes on the side?! Yeah, it’s safe to say this dish is a slam dunk.

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.
• 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.
• 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 RedHot® Original 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.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many loved the spicy kick and crispy coating, with the blue cheese sauce balancing the heat 🌶️.
- Ease of prep: Simple to make and customize spice levels, though some found timing tricky to get everything hot at once.
- Suggestions: Consider adding extra panko for more coverage; try ranch dressing if you don't like blue cheese.
- Leftovers: Chicken doesn't reheat well the next day; some found portions small, especially carrots.
- Sides: Roasted carrots were a hit; several wished for a green vegetable instead of two starchy sides.
Reviews from our home cooks
I really enjoyed the Frank's Red Hot spice on the chicken. I always love the crispy chicken recipes! The blue cheese sauce was also good, I think it went well with the flavor of the chicken.
Frank's RedHot spice with the panko was really tasty. The carrots and potatoes rounded it out nicely, and the blue cheese did make it taste almost like a buffalo chicken. Very tasty!
The chicken and the carrot fries were amazing, but we did not get enough potatoes to go with the water to potato ratio when making the mashed potatoes. they were very soupy- so just judge the water ratio yourself. Also, the blue cheese dip is insanely rich and kinda gagged me. Would be better to just leave the blue cheese as-is and not mix it with sour cream IMO. Definitely will be buying the Franks seasoning mix and have on hand
This was my favorite meal. The chicken was a great quality. The coating with the Franks hot sauce was fantastic. The carrots and mashed potatoes were the perfect compliment.
Great flavor profile! The carrots caramelized really nicely and I really liked the Red Hot Original Seasoning blend on the chicken. The blue cheese sauce was a nice final touch to bring it all together.
Love the franks redhot chicken! This is the second time we've ordered it. I ended up adding a half cup of plain greek yogurt to the mashed potatoes because they were very boring.
LOVED the way my carrots turned out this time they were so so delicious, I just wish I had more than the 2 carrots I had! The onions are always really good in the mashed potatoes and the chicken is of course delicious. I had a similar meal to this from Hello Fresh before, but the sauce was different. I'm not a big fan of the sauce in this recipe just because of the blue cheese. Other than that everything else was a 10/10.
Hello Fresh chicken recipes are the best. This is truly RedHot and very tasty. We like the entire meal. I NEVER eat cooked carrots but I'm a Convert now thanks to Hello Fresh style of cooking!
The chicken is to die for. This recipe inspired me to buy the Frank's RedHot seasoning AND the hot sauce used.
Should have the carrots already peeled and sliced. A recipe like this takes me 2 hours to prepare, when it should only take me 40 minutes. Too spicy. I did not use any Frank's Redhot seasonings or the hot sauce, but mixed in some grated parmesan cheese instead. Did not use blue cheese, but used chicken stock concentrate from another meal I did not use it on. Was good after that.
