Ingredients

Scale

1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs pounded to an even thickness
1 tbsp olive oil for grilling
1 tsp kosher salt
0.5 tsp black pepper
0.33 cup honey
2 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo finely chopped
0.25 cup ketchup
6 whole soft brioche slider buns
2 tbsp unsalted butter for toasting buns

0.5 cup shredded carrots
0.25 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp sugar
0.25 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp sour cream
1 tbsp milk
2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and brush the chicken thighs with olive oil. Season with kosher salt and black pepper.
In a bowl, mix together honey, chipotle peppers, and ketchup to create the sauce. Reserve a portion for glazing later.
Grill the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side, basting with the honey chipotle sauce until cooked through.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the slaw by mixing green and purple cabbage, shredded carrots, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.
Toast the brioche buns with butter on the grill until golden brown.
Once the chicken is ready, slice it and place on the toasted buns. Top with the slaw and any remaining sauce before serving.

Notes

You can adjust the heat by adding more or fewer chipotle peppers. Serve with your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
