Recipe Steps
Add 1 lb chicken breasts and 1 Tbsp kosher salt to pot. | Fill pot with water to cover chicken. Bring to boil over high heat. |
Turn heat to low and cover. Poach chicken until cooked through, 15-20 minutes. | Use tongs to remove chicken from pot. Set on a plate to cool for 15 minutes. |
Meanwhile, remove core from ¼ head green or purple cabbage. Pull apart leaves, then slice thinly. Add to large bowl. | Add 1 cup shredded carrots. |
Whisk together ¼ cup mayonnaise, 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 ½ tsp sugar, ½ tsp kosher salt, and ¼ tsp ground black pepper in small bowl. | Add dressing to cabbage and carrots. Stir well. Set aside. |
Use two forks or your hands to shred cooled chicken into small pieces. Add to medium bowl. | Add ½ cup BBQ sauce to chicken. Mix until combined. |
Toast 4-6 burger buns. | Assemble sandwiches. Layer BBQ chicken and coleslaw inside buns. |
Recipe Notes
Cut down on your chopping time — there's no shame in buying the pre-shredded coleslaw mix.
Don't like shredding chicken? Check out this hack: Add the cooked chicken breasts to the bowl of a stand mix fitted with paddle attachment. Turn it on low, and you'll have perfectly shredded chicken in less than 30 seconds!
Even if you're not vegetarian, jackfruit is such a great match for the texture of the shredded chicken in this recipe you might not even miss it! Just use about 20 oz of jackfruit – shred it with two forks and warm it in a pan before tossing with your BBQ sauce in Step 10.
