This dish brings together tender chicken cutlets with a rich, smoky mustard cream sauce, perfectly roasted red potatoes and a crisp apple coleslaw. The combination of savory, tangy and fresh flavors makes for a satisfying meal that comes together in under an hour.

Instructions

  1. Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and dry produce. Quarter potatoes and toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, half the Fry Seasoning, salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
  2. While potatoes roast, halve, core and thinly slice the apple into matchsticks. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. In a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, apple, mayonnaise, 1½ tsp vinegar and ¼ tsp sugar; season with salt and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
  3. Pat chicken cutlets dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining Fry Seasoning, salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board to rest. Remove any burned bits from pan if needed.
  4. If needed, add another drizzle of oil to the pan. Heat over medium-high heat and add scallion whites; cook, stirring, until softened, about 30 seconds. Add remaining vinegar and cook until mostly evaporated, 3-5 seconds. Add mustard, chicken stock concentrate and ¼ cup water. Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and 1 tsp butter until smooth.
  5. Thinly slice chicken. Divide chicken, slaw and potatoes between plates. Spoon pan sauce over chicken and garnish with scallion greens.

Recipe Tips

For extra crispy potatoes, spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet.

If the chicken browns too quickly, lower the heat to prevent burning.

Let the chicken rest before slicing to keep it juicy.

FAQ

Can I use a different type of potato?

Yes, Yukon Gold or baby potatoes work well. Adjust roasting time as needed.

Can I substitute the chicken with another protein?

Pork chops or turkey cutlets are good alternatives. Adjust cooking time accordingly.

How do I make the slaw ahead of time?

Prepare the slaw up to a day in advance, but add the apple just before serving to prevent browning.
