Method

Pulled Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Sear the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Pour in the chicken broth and barbecue sauce. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook on low heat for about 30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

  4. 4

    Shred the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the skillet and use two forks to shred it. Return the shredded chicken to the skillet and stir to coat in the sauce.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Coleslaw

    In a medium bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Pile a generous amount of pulled chicken on the bottom half of each bun, top with coleslaw, and cover with the top half of the bun.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately with extra barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
