Ingredients
BBQ Chicken Burger Bites
- 2 lb. ground chicken breast
- ¼ cup BBQ sauce
- 4 teaspoons BBQ dry rub (homemade or store-bought)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 14 whole wheat slider buns
Avocado Slaw
- 16 oz. cabbage slaw
- 2 avocados (medium)
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (32g)
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (32g)
- ¾ teaspoon BBQ dry rub (homemade or store-bought, 2g)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt (2g)
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Spicy Vinegar Sauce
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar (60g)
- 1 tablespoon honey (18g)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt (2g)
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (1g)
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (2g)
Instructions
Make the Spicy Vinegar Sauce
- In a small mason jar, combine the apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes.
- Shake until incorporated, then set aside for future use.
Make the BBQ Chicken Burger Bites
- On the stovetop, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is warm to the touch, drizzle in the olive oil.
- As the oil heats, combine the ground chicken, BBQ sauce and BBQ dry rub in a glass bowl. Stir until combined. (The mixture will be wet, so combine using a rubber spatula instead of your hands.)
- Using a ¼ cup measuring scoop, measure 14 chicken burger patties onto a plate.
- Cook the patties in small batches in the skillet, flipping when the bottom side becomes crusty and browned. Cook until the patties are completely cooked through and the internal temperature is 165°F.
- When the patties are completely cooked, brush liberally with the Spicy Vinegar Sauce.
Make the Avocado Slaw
- Measure the cabbage slaw into a large bowl, then set aside.
- In a smaller glass bowl, mash the avocados together.
- Season with the lime juice, apple cider vinegar, BBQ dry rub, salt and pepper.
- Pour the avocado mixture over the cabbage slaw, stirring until just combined.
Make the Burger Bites
- Toast the whole wheat slider buns, then slice in half. Dab with the vinegar sauce.
- Place the cooked burger bite patties onto the bottom bun, then top with Avocado Slaw.
- Continue until all eight burger bites have been arranged.
- Enjoy immediately!
