BBQ Chicken Sandwiches 

Ingredients

• 1 ¾ pounds sliced onion (about 3)
• 6 garlic cloves, halved
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 4 thighs)
• ½ cup jarred barbecue sauce
• 2 tablespoons light sour cream
• 1 ½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• ½ teaspoon honey
• 6 ounces cabbage-and-carrot coleslaw mix 
• ¼ teaspoon pepper (optional)
• 4 whole wheat hamburger buns, toasted

Recipe Directions

1. Preheat broiler. Place onion and garlic on a foil-line baking sheet; toss with oil. Broil 5 minutes, 6 inches from heat, until onion is golden, stirring often. 
2. Preheat oven to 425º. Transfer onion mixture to a square glass baking dish; top with chicken. Pour barbecue sauce over chicken; cover tightly with foil. Bake, in middle of oven, until chicken is cooked through (about 20 minutes).
3. Combine sour cream, vinegar, and honey; whisk well. Toss with coleslaw mix and pepper. 
4. Shred chicken with a fork; top bottoms of buns with chicken, onion, sauce mixture, and coleslaw. Place bun tops on sandwiches and serve with fresh vegetables!
