Cooking Steps
Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
Reserve 1 tsp vinegar (2 tsp for 4 servings) in a large bowl.
In a separate large bowl, combine coleslaw mix with mayonnaise, remaining vinegar, 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4), salt, and pepper. Toss to combine, then refrigerate until ready to serve.
Pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Drizzle all over with oil; season all over with half the Fry Seasoning, half the curry powder, half the thyme, a pinch of sugar, salt, and pepper (all the Fry Seasoning, all the curry powder, and all the thyme for 4 servings).
Place chicken in oven-ready tray (for 4, divide chicken between two trays). Bake on top rack (be sure your oven has preheated!) until browned and cooked through, 15-20 minutes.
When chicken has 5 minutes remaining, to bowl with reserved vinegar, add one packet of mustard, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp water, a large drizzle of olive oil, and a big pinch of salt (two packets of mustard, 2 tsp sugar, and 2 tsp water for 4 servings). Whisk to combine. Add mixed greens and toss until thoroughly coated.
In a small bowl, combine jam and remaining mustard.
Halve buns crosswise and toast. Spread cut sides with as much fig mustard as you like.
Divide buns and salad between plates. Fill buns with chicken and as much slaw as you like. Close sandwiches and serve with any remaining slaw on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
I really like the prep and bake concept. This meal is easy to prepare and I find that baking the chicken makes less mess than cooking it on the stove. I wasn't sure if I would like the flavor of the Dijon mustard with the fig, but I did. It was very tasty.
This was damn good. I am a proficient cook and this one surprised me. The flavors all worked well together. It was filling but not heavy, and OMG so easy!!!!! Whomever at Hello Fresh came up with this one deserves a promotion!!
Loved this meal! All the flavors went really well together on the sandwich! I loved the salad with it as well!
Loved having the reusable aluminum dish with the meal. Fig jam was also delicious added to the sandwich
Very well balanced and delicious!!!! I added extra veg into the salad but it would've been fine without
Super easy! Just too many seasonings on chicken. Fry seasoning alone would've been enough.
This was very flavorful, we did not like the dressing for the salad.
Could use additional jam packets for the spread. We ran out of the jam+mustard sauce. Sent way too much salad - you could cut back on this in the future.
The sandwich was very good but I had to toss the salad greens because several lettuce leaves had black spots on them.
Very good. So flavorful and mouth watering. The flavors worked so well together.
