Prepare & roast the potatoes:
1 Prepare & roast the potatoes:

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch-wide wedges. Transfer to a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat; arrange in an even layer, skin side down. Roast 28 to 30 minutes, or until lightly browned. Leaving the oven on, remove from the oven.

2 Prepare the ingredients & make the slaw:

While the potatoes roast, halve the baguettes. Halve the tomatoes. Place in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Cut out and discard the core of the cabbage; thinly slice the leaves. In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, creamy mustard sauce, and pickle relish. Add the sliced cabbage. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the coated chicken in an even layer (shaking off any excess coating before adding).
