Lil’ Sweet Lil’ Spicy Chicken
with Roasted Carrots & Cheesy Garlic Potato Wedges
- Milk
- Eggs
Over here, we believe chicken is a canvas, and we like to paint it with allllll the flavors. Tonight’s palette: A saucy coating that includes honey, Frank’s hot sauce, and butter—because why choose one of these ingredients when you could choose all three? Add to that a side of cheesy garlic potato wedges and roasted carrots, and you have yourself a dinner to Remem-brandt (see what we did there?).

Cooking Steps
• Adjust racks to middle and top positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a separate baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Roast carrots on middle rack and potatoes on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes. • When potatoes have 2-3 minutes left, using a spatula, carefully push potatoes together so they’re slightly overlapping. Sprinkle with pepper jack. Return to oven until cheese melts.
• Meanwhile, pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt, then rub with Frank’s Seasoning.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium, preferably nonstick, pan (use a large, preferably nonstick, pan for 4 servings) over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. TIP: Cooking over medium heat will help prevent the spice blend from burning. • Turn off heat; transfer chicken to a plate. Wipe out pan.
• Heat same pan over medium-low heat. Add honey, stock concentrate, and 1 TBSP water (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Cook, stirring, until combined and just simmering, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) and Frank’s hot sauce to taste. • Return chicken to pan and turn to coat.
• Divide chicken, carrots, and potato wedges between plates. Drizzle any remaining sauce from pan over chicken. Serve with ranch dressing on the side for dipping.

Reviews from our home cooks
Took a chance on this one, as I usually avoid spicy options, but was pleasantly surprised that it was awesome! I only used one of the Red Hots in the sauce, so I think that's why. Absolutely delicious. And the garlic/cheesy potato wedges were amazing. Good one, Hello Fresh!!
I will never cook carrots without roasted red pepper flakes. The sweet & spicy combination of the carrots and the delicious sauce that went on the chicken were fabulous!
Kids LOVED the chicken. Overall the meal was enjoyed by the whole family and easy to make. Only issue was that the ratio of carrots to potatoes seemed off. Two tiny carrots and a LOT of potatoes left us with a very small serving of carrots and lots of leftover wedges. Recommend adjusting that to at least one whole carrot per person.
Delicious recipe! We liked the spicy chicken and the cheesy potatoes. Easy recipe to follow. We will try this recipe again.
This was a sleeper. Not sure if it's a new recipe or one that I've just missed before, but this sauce for the chicken was SO good! We loved the little sweet, little spicy combo! Would definitely order again.
Perfect. The chicken was tender and juicy. Seasoning was spot-on. The sauce was a delicious mix of spicy-sweet and added great flavor to the potatoes.
Delicious! All three items. Loved the cheesy potatoes and the carrots were amazing!!! Sauce for chicken was perfect flavor!
Carrots needed more cook time. Should mention that you need to flatten chicken to get it fully cooked in time you say. So good and tasty! I poured that sauce on my potatoes too it was so good!
Yummy! We loved the cheesy garlic potato fries. We only added one of the two packets of Frank's hot sauce and it was just right. The buttermilk ranch on the side was a nice addition.
WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER! Just the right amount of sweet and spice, I could eat this over and over... those POTATOES - OMG! I could have licked the plate.
