Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Vegetable oil, for grill

Five-Ingredient Barbecue Sauce

4 cups thinly sliced red or green cabbage, or a combination

2 scallions, chopped

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 teaspoon celery seed

1 tablespoon apple-cider vinegar

4 seeded hamburger buns, split

Preparation

Heat a grill to medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Lightly brush grates with oil. Grill chicken, flipping halfway, until cooked through, about 4 minutes a side. Brush both sides with barbecue sauce and continue cooking, flipping once, until caramelized and lightly charred in places, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes, then coarsely chop.

Combine cabbage, scallions, mayonnaise, celery seed, and vinegar in a bowl. Season to taste and toss to combine.

Grill buns, split-sides down; until lightly golden, about 1 minute. Serve with chopped chicken and drizzle with more barbecue sauce. Top with coleslaw.
