Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Pulled Chicken Sliders with Coleslaw:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a slow cooker.
2. Season: Drizzle olive oil over the chicken. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper over the top.
3. Add Sauce: Pour barbecue sauce over the seasoned chicken.
4. Cook: Set the slow cooker on low and cook for approximately 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours until chicken shreds easily with a fork.
5. Shred the Chicken: After cooking, remove the chicken from the slow cooker. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces and return it to the sauce. Stir to combine.
6. Make the Coleslaw: In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded cabbage and carrots.
7. Prepare Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
8. Mix Slaw: Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss well until coated. Set aside to chill.
9. Assemble Sliders: Slice the slider buns in half. Spoon a generous amount of pulled chicken onto the bottom half of each bun.
10. Top with Slaw: Add a spoonful of coleslaw on top of the chicken and place the top half of the bun.
11. Serve: Enjoy immediately or keep warm until ready to serve.
