Monterey Jack Un-Fried Chicken with Roasted Carrots, Potato Wedges & Sriracha Mayo

Step 1

• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces.

Step 2

• Place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small microwave-safe bowl; microwave until melted, 30 seconds. • Stir in panko, Monterey Jack, half the Ranch Spice (you’ll use the rest in the next step), salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Toss potatoes on one side of a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, remaining Ranch Spice, salt, and pepper. • Toss carrots on empty side with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. (For 4 servings, divide between 2 sheets; roast potatoes on top rack and carrots on middle rack for 20-25 minutes total.) • Roast on top rack for 5 minutes (you’ll add more to the sheet then).

Step 4

• Meanwhile, pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Place on a plate. Spread tops of chicken with 1 tsp mayonnaise each (you’ll use the rest later). Mound with panko mixture, pressing firmly to adhere (no need to coat the undersides). • Once veggies have roasted 5 minutes, remove from oven. Push veggies to one side of sheet. Carefully place chicken, coated sides up, on empty side. (For 4 servings, leave veggies roasting; add chicken to a third sheet and roast on middle rack.) • Roast until potatoes and carrots are golden brown and tender and chicken is cooked through, 15-20 minutes more.

Step 5

• Meanwhile, in a second small bowl, combine remaining mayonnaise with Sriracha to taste.

Step 6

• Divide chicken, potato wedges, and carrots between plates. Serve with Sriracha mayo on the side for dipping.
