BBQ Chicken Sloppy Joes
Report
This BBQ Chicken Sloppy Joes recipe features ground chicken cooked with onions and green peppers, simmered in a thick sauce made from barbecue and tomato sauces. Served on hamburger buns, this sloppy joe offers a tangy, smoky twist on a classic sandwich. The combination provides a tender and saucy filling that holds well inside the buns.
Description
BBQ Chicken Sloppy Joes start by sautéeing diced onion and green bell pepper in olive oil until soft. Ground chicken is added and cooked until no longer pink, with breaking apart into fine pieces. A sauce combining barbecue and tomato sauces is stirred in and simmered until thickened and flavorful.
This method results in a savory and slightly sweet filling with green pepper pieces adding mild crispness and aroma. The sauce clings to the chicken well, preventing dryness. Serving on hamburger buns makes it convenient handheld fare suitable for casual meals or gatherings.
