Ingredients

For the Chicken

4 pieces Chicken thighs Juicy and tender for the best flavor
1/2 cup Honey For sweetness
1/4 cup Chipotle sauce Adjust based on heat preference
2 tablespoons Oil For grilling

For the Sliders

8 pieces Slider buns Use soft, fresh buns for best texture
1 cup Coleslaw Fresh for crunch
2 cloves Garlic For drizzling on sliders
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Pepper

Method

Preparation

In a bowl, mix honey and chipotle sauce.
Marinate the chicken thighs in the honey chipotle mixture for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

Heat oil in a grill pan over medium heat.
Grill the marinated chicken thighs for 6-8 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
Remove chicken from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Assembly

Assemble the sliders by placing pieces of chicken on slider buns, topping with coleslaw and a drizzle of garlic sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For best flavor, marinate the chicken a few hours or overnight. You can bake the chicken in the oven at 400°F if you don't have a grill pan. For variations, try adding jalapeños or substituting with BBQ sauce.
