Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or rub with oil.
  • To make the herb blend: In a bowl, mix the paprika, dried parsley, dried chives, dill, onion, and garlic powder.
  • On the sheet pan, toss together the chicken, half of the herb blend, salt, and pepper. Add the flour and toss again. Add olive oil, tossing to coat. Bake 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, make the buffalo sauce. In a saucepan set over medium heat, melt together the hot sauce, butter, seasoned salt, and chipotle. Stir until melted and combined.
  • Pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken, toss the chicken in the sauce, and add the remaining herb blend. Bake for another 5 minutes, until the buffalo sauce is baked onto the chicken.
  • To make the Greek Yogurt Ranch. Mix all ingredients together and season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the chicken with the ranch dressing. I love this over rice, in a salad, and, of course, it's great with French fries too!
