“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity.” – Psalm 133:1

Shredded chicken tossed in smoky BBQ sauce, piled onto whole wheat slider buns with a tangy Greek yogurt coleslaw. All the comfort of pulled chicken, with a healthier twist.

Ingredients

2 cups cooked shredded chicken breast
¾ cup your favorite BBQ sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp black pepper
8 whole wheat slider buns
1 cup shredded coleslaw mix
⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tsp honey
¼ tsp salt

Instructions

In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Stir until heated through and well coated, about 5–7 minutes.

In a separate bowl, mix coleslaw mix, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, and salt to create a light, creamy slaw. Toast slider buns lightly if desired.

Spoon warm BBQ chicken onto each bun and top with a generous scoop of slaw. Serve immediately.
