Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 1.5-inch chunks
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
  • 1/3 cup Frank's RedHot or similar buffalo wing sauce
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 stalks celery stalks, sliced
  • 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles (or ranch dressing)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large sheet pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, stir together 1/3 cup Frank's RedHot or similar buffalo wing sauce and 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter to make the buffalo butter.

  3. 3

    Toss 1.5 lbs halved baby potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp kosher salt, and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Spread cut-side down on the sheet pan.

  4. 4

    Roast potatoes for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, toss 1.5 lbs 1.5-inch chunks boneless, skinless chicken breasts with about two-thirds of the buffalo butter mixture and a pinch of salt.

  5. 5

    Push potatoes to the edges of the pan and add chicken to the center in a single layer.

  6. 6

    Roast for another 18-20 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are fork-tender and golden.

  7. 7

    Drizzle the remaining buffalo butter over the pan. Top with 2 stalks sliced celery stalks, 2 thinly sliced green onions, and 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles (or ranch dressing). Serve immediately.
