Preparation
Roast the potatoes
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Medium-dice the potatoes.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ⅔ of the spices and S&P.
- Roast, stirring halfway, 20 to 25 min., until browned and tender.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, thinly slice the chives and radishes.
- In a small bowl, make the dressing by combining the sour cream, vinegar (start with ½), ½ the chives, 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Start the chicken
- Pat the chicken dry; season with the remaining spices and S&P.
- In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the chicken and cook, 2 to 3 min. on one side, until browned and partially cooked.
Finish the chicken
- Flip the chicken and cook, 2 to 3 min., until cooked through.
- Add 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and cook, 30 sec. to 1 min., until melted.
- Off the heat, add the Buffalo sauce (add ½ for medium spicy); toss the chicken until coated.
Make the salad & serve
- In a large bowl, combine the radishes and baby greens.
- Divide the salad and potatoes between your plates.
- Top with the chicken and spoon any remaining glaze over.
- Garnish with the remaining chives.
- Serve the dressing on the side. Bon appétit!
