Dinner guests are guaranteed to be impressed with this deceptively easy Pulled Chicken Sandwich recipe, which includes a seven-ingredient rub and a simple 15-minute sauce that comes together while the chicken grills. Serve on buns, over fresh greens, or on top of a baked potato for a filling dinner. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar |
1 teaspoon paprika |
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs |
cooking spray |
2 teaspoons canola oil |
1/2 cup finely chopped onion |
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper |
1 cup ketchup |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
remaining ingredients |
8 (1 1/2-ounce) hamburger buns, toasted |
16 hamburger dill chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
2. To prepare chicken, combine first 6 ingredients; rub evenly over chicken. Place chicken on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; cover and grill 15 minutes or until a thermometer registers 180°, turning occasionally. Let stand for 5 minutes. Shred with 2 forks.
3. To prepare sauce, while chicken grills, heat canola oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook for 5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 tablespoon sugar and next 5 ingredients (through ground red pepper); cook 30 seconds. Stir in ketchup and vinegar; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in chicken; cook 2 minutes.
4. Place 1/3 cup chicken mixture on bottom half of each bun; top each with 2 pickle chips and top of bun.
