Instructions

Pulled Chicken

  • Place chicken in the bottom of your slow-cooker.

Pour mixture over Chicken already in slow-cooker making sure all sides of Chicken have been coated. Cover and cook using low temperature setting for 5 hours.
  • Pull Chicken from slow-cooker and place onto a cutting board. Shred Chicken using two forks. Skim off fat from remaining liquid in slow-cooker and discard. Combine Corn Starch and Water and mix. Turn slow-cooker on to high temperature setting until mixture starts to thicken (about 5 minutes). Add pulled Chicken back to slow-cooker and toss.

Cabbage & Carrot Slaw

  • Combine Cabbage, Carrots, Radishes, Basil & Sunflower Seeds in a large mixing bowl. In a smaller separate bowl, mix the Lime Juice, Olive Oil, Vinegar, Habenero Pepper, Salt (½ amount) & Pepper (½ amount). Just before serving, combine ingredients from the smaller mixing bowl into the larger one and allow about 15 minutes to marinade.

Serving

  • Lightly toast Brioche Roll on a large skillet then plate. Place pulled chicken onto the bottom bun and then top with an equal serving of slaw. NOTE: Serve and eat quickly to prevent the roll from getting soggy.
