Ingredients

  • ½ kg boneless, skinless chicken thighs (Chicken breast can be used instead)
  • ½ tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • Rub:
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • Sauce:
  • ½ tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ¼ sizeable yellow onion diced
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of ground cayenne pepper (optional)
  • ½ cup American Garden’s Ketchup
  • ¼ cup American Garden’s Original BBQ Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • 4 rolls or buns
  • coleslaw (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1. Heat grill to 200°C. In a small bowl, combine the rub ingredients and set aside.
    2. Drizzle olive oil over the chicken and thoroughly season both sides with the rub. Chill until ready to grill or cook right away.
    3. Place the chicken on the prepared grill and cook until cooked through, flipping once or twice. While grilling, keep the cover closed.
    4. Allow the chicken to cool for a few minutes before shredding it.
    5. Prepare the sauce while the chicken is cooking, or even before. In a saucepan over medium heat, add the diced onion and cook, often stirring, until the onion is tender and translucent.
    6. Stir in chili powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Stir in American Garden’s Original BBQ sauce and American Garden’s ketchup, lemon juice, and molasses.
    7. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to medium-low and continue to simmer for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
    8. Stir in the pulled chicken to the sauce. Top toasted buns with chicken mixture and, if desired, coleslaw. Yum! It is just that good!
