Cooking Steps
Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet. Wash and dry produce (except green beans). Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Toss on one side of prepared sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, half the BBQ Seasoning (you’ll use the rest in the next step), pepper, and a big pinch of salt. (For 4, spread potatoes out across entire sheet.) Roast on top rack for 5 minutes (you’ll add the chicken then).
Meanwhile, place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a medium microwave-safe bowl; microwave until melted, 30 seconds. Stir in a large drizzle of olive oil, remaining BBQ Seasoning, pepper, and a big pinch of salt. Add panko and stir until evenly combined.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Evenly spread sour cream onto tops of chicken; mound with panko mixture, pressing to adhere (no need to coat the undersides). Once potatoes have roasted 5 minutes, remove sheet from oven; carefully place coated chicken on empty side. (For 4 servings, leave potatoes roasting and add chicken to a second sheet.)
Roast chicken and potatoes on top rack until chicken is browned and cooked through and potatoes are crispy, 15-18 minutes. (For 4 servings, roast chicken on middle rack.)
When chicken and potatoes are almost done, pierce green bean bag with a fork; place bag on a plate. Microwave until tender, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: If you like, toss green beans in a bowl with 1 TBSP butter.
Divide chicken, potatoes, and green beans between plates. Drizzle chicken with as much hot honey as you like and serve.

Reviews from our home cooks
This was really delicious. I had to make it gluten free by using my own gf panko breadcrumbs, so it may have been a little different from what was intended, but it was great anyway. We wondered why such a small amount of hot honey was included, but we soon realized that just a tiny little drizzle was all it took to add the perfect flavor. THANK YOU SO MUCH for allowing us to swap in green beans in place of the broccoli. My adult son has problems with even the smell of broccoli. We would have missed out on this delicious meal if we had not been able to swap.
This was such a creative mixture of flavors. So unique and so good. One of our favorites for sure! Hot honey is the bomb!
Easy to make the chicken crunchy. The hot honey is incredible!
Delicious as is! A fun twist is to save some of the panko mixture (there's enough!) and top the green beans with it. Also recommend sauteeing the green beans on the stovetop rather than microwave (should never microwave if there's another choice!).
This was great! I would have liked a bit more hot honey to drizzle on everything, but the flavors were excellent and I was able to get dinner done fairly quickly.
This was really good. Loved the panko mixture and the added hot honey was a nice touch on top. Would get again.
I've never been able to bread and bake chicken like this. Luckily, HelloFresh made it easy for me to get the hang of it! This dish was so delicious!
My main complaint and I've said this before, one chicken cutlet is perfect, and the other is thin and looks like there are holes in it. It seems to me that they should look similar in size
Chicken was delicious and full of flavor would've been better it was a little spicier
This was good but the hot honey element was very light and did not see that as the main feature of this recipe.
