# Directions:
01 - In a large pot or slow cooker, combine chicken breasts, barbecue sauce, chicken broth, olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat for 25-30 minutes until chicken is cooked through and tender. Remove chicken and shred with two forks, then return to sauce and simmer for 5 minutes to absorb flavors.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth.
03 - Add shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots to the dressing. Toss thoroughly until all vegetables are evenly coated. Set aside.
04 - Brush mini slider buns with melted butter and toast in a skillet or oven at 375°F for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
05 - Place a generous spoonful of pulled BBQ chicken on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a scoop of creamy cabbage slaw, then cover with the bun tops. Serve immediately with additional barbecue sauce on the side.
