• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 slices dark rye bread (lightly toasted)
• 4 slices swiss cheese
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
• Napa Cabbage coleslaw
• 1 medium head Napa cabbage (shredded)
• 2 medium carrots (peeled and shredded)
• 1 jalapeno (seeded, thinly sliced)
• 2 teaspoons celery seed
• 2 teaspoons mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons non-fat Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 2 teaspoons sweet pickle relish

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat outdoor grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Preheat broiler in oven. Adjust oven rack to the top rack.
Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil. Place on preheated grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165ºF. Remove from grill, let rest for 5 minutes. Slice chicken thighs into 5 pieces per chicken thigh.
On a baking sheet with slices of toasted dark rye bread, add sliced chicken, top with slaw and a slice of swiss cheese. Place under broiler for 1-2 minutes until cheese has melted.
For the Napa Cabbage Coleslaw: In a large bowl, add the Napa cabbage, carrots, jalapeno, and celery seed. Toss to combine. In a small bowl, add mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, ketchup, relish and whisk to combine. Drizzle over Napa cabbage mixture and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
Tip: For a quick coleslaw, use a bag of coleslaw mix instead of making your own. Drizzle over dressing and toss.
