Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 cup Keto-friendly barbecue sauce
- 1 cup Red cabbage
- 1 cup Green cabbage
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 buns Grain-free sandwich buns
- 2 stalks Green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, then season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
While the chicken is baking, prepare the slaw. Thinly slice the red and green cabbage and place them in a mixing bowl.
Add mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar to the cabbage. Mix thoroughly until cabbage is well coated, then finely chop the green onions and mix into the slaw.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven. Allow it to cool slightly, then shred using two forks.
Mix shredded chicken with keto-friendly barbecue sauce until evenly coated.
Toast grain-free sandwich buns in the oven or on a skillet for a few minutes until slightly crispy.
Assemble the sandwiches by placing a generous portion of pulled chicken on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a scoop of cabbage slaw. Place the top bun over the slaw.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Pulled Chicken Sandwich!
