Ingredients
- 1 pint yellow cherry tomatoes, quartered
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 green bell pepper
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 2 scallions, whites sliced thinly on the bias up to the pale greens, dark green tops reserved for garnish
- 1/2 head red cabbage, super finely shredded on a mandoline
- BBQ Vinaigrette, recipe follows
- 1 cup crispy bacon bits
- 1/4 cup smoky BBQ sauce
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Toss the cherry tomatoes in a small bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- Put the green pepper directly over a gas burner (you can also do this under the broiler). Cook, rotating every 1 to 2 minutes, until the skin begins to char. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic and let sit for 10 minutes. Peel off the skin, discard the core and seeds and slice the pepper into thin strips.
- In a large bowl, toss together the chicken, scallion whites and cabbage. Add the BBQ Vinaigrette and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the slaw to a serving bowl. On top of the slaw, arrange neat little rows of the tomatoes, green pepper strips and bacon bits. Slice the reserved scallion tops and sprinkle over the slaw.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce, oil, vinegar and mustard until emulsified. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Reviews
Used jalepeno instead of bell pepper. Added some Frank’s. Half the bacon. Might put less oil next time time. Still fantastic!
Such a great recipe! It tastes great the second day.
Have made this many times now and it’s a big hit. I also add katielee’s pickled red onions. It also holds up well so great to pack for picnics or lunches the next day. Love it!!
I didn’t have chicken or bacon, but this dressing is everything, so good
Amazing!!! I used packaged coleslaw for convenience
Yum! I added blue cheese crumbles to mine and just used a packaged slaw mix instead of the cabbage. The dressing is amazing, I’ll use it on all sorts of salads! Quick, easy and delicious.
Made it. Loved it.
