Instructions
Prepare the Chicken: Pound the chicken thighs to an even thickness, then season with kosher salt and black pepper.
Make the Honey Chipotle Sauce: Mix honey, chipotle peppers, and ketchup in a bowl until combined.
Grill the Chicken: Heat olive oil on a grill, cook chicken thighs for 4-5 minutes on each side, brushing with the honey chipotle sauce.
Toast the Buns: Melt butter, split brioche slider buns, and toast them cut-side down until golden brown.
Prepare the Slaw: Combine green cabbage, purple cabbage, and carrots. In a smaller bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, minced garlic, sour cream, and milk, then combine with cabbage.
Assemble the Sliders: Slice grilled chicken, layer on toasted buns with slaw, and top with the other half of the bun.
Serve and Enjoy!: Serve the sliders warm with sides of sweet potato fries or chips.
