Description

This BBQ Chicken Sandwich recipe features tender, shredded chicken coated in a smoky, tangy BBQ sauce, served on a toasted bun with crunchy coleslaw.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 4 hamburger buns, toasted

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
