In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked, shredded chicken with the low-sugar BBQ sauce and mix until evenly coated.
Heat the chicken and BBQ sauce mixture in a skillet over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the coleslaw dressing by whisking together the low-fat plain Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper.
Add the coleslaw mix to the dressing and toss until the vegetables are well coated. Set aside.
Toast the whole wheat sandwich buns lightly, if desired.
Assemble the sandwiches by placing a generous portion of the BBQ chicken mixture on the bottom half of each bun.
Top the BBQ chicken with a scoop of dressed coleslaw for added crunch and flavor.
Place the top half of the bun over the coleslaw to complete the sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat BBQ sandwiches!
