Cooking Steps
- Drain pickle juice into a large bowl. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Add chicken, half the Dill-Garlic Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) mayo into bowl with pickle juice. Toss to coat.
- Trim and discard bottom 1 inch from asparagus.
- Divide asparagus into 4 bundles (8 bundles for 4 ppl). Carefully wrap 1 bacon strip around each bundle, leaving 1 inch of asparagus exposed at the top and bottom.
- Transfer bacon-wrapped asparagus to one half of a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with pepper.
- Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch wedges.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
- Add potatoes, half the peppers, remaining Dill-Garlic Spice Blend and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to other half of prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets, with asparagus on one and potatoes on the other.)
- Roast in bottom of oven, flipping halfway, until veggies are tender and golden-brown and bacon is cooked, 20-24 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
- Meanwhile, heat a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- While pan heats, combine half the panko (use all for 4 ppl) and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) oil in a medium bowl.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken, letting any excess marinade drip into the bowl first. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.)
- Reduce heat to medium. Cook until golden, 1-2 min per side.
- Transfer chicken to another parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread half the cream cheese over top. Top with panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, until topping is golden-brown and chicken is cooked through, 10-13 min.**
- Meanwhile, cut cucumber into quarters lengthwise.
- Thinly slice chives.
- Finely chop pickles.
- To the bowl used in step 3, add sour cream, pickles, half the chives, remaining mayo, remaining cream cheese and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to mix.
- Slice chicken, if desired.
- Divide chicken, potatoes, bacon-wrapped asparagus and veggies between plates.
- Serve pickle dip alongside.
- Sprinkle remaining chives over chicken and pickle dip.
