Ingredients

Servings
  • ¼ cup olive oil divided, 1 Tbsp
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Tabasco hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 2 chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 1 tablespoon mustard stone ground
  • ½ cup celery diced
  • ½ cup carrot shredded
  • 1 cup bell pepper thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Combine the ¼ cup olive oil, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, hot sauce and cajun seasoning in a medium bowl to create the marinade and slaw dressing.
  2. Pour half of the marinade (app ¼ cup) into a large plastic bag with the chicken. 
  3. Toss to coat and place in the refrigerator to marinate for up to 8 hours, I would recommend at least 30 minutes.
  4. Combine the remainder of the marinade with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp stone ground mustard to create the slaw dressing and set aside.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the celery, carrots and bell pepper, pour the slaw dressing into the bowl and toss to combine. Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. 
  6. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on a grill over medium heat for 10-12 minutes per side.
  7. Once the chicken is grilled, slice and serve with the cajun slaw
