Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.

- Meanwhile, coat the chicken pieces with paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, panko breadcrumbs, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss well.
- Remove the vegetables from the oven and add the chicken to the sheet pan. Return to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
- Whisk together the buffalo sauce and honey. Drizzle over the chicken and vegetables, toss to coat, and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
- While the chicken and vegetables bake, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Toss with the coleslaw mix.
- Serve the buffalo chicken and vegetables in bowls topped with green onions, feta cheese, extra buffalo sauce if desired, and the creamy coleslaw.
Notes
- For extra heat, use hot buffalo sauce instead of mild.
