Description
Delicious BBQ Jackfruit Sliders topped with creamy avocado slaw, perfect for a plant-based meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (20 oz) young green jackfruit in water or brine, drained and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slider buns
- 2 cups green cabbage, shredded
- 1 cup red cabbage, shredded
- 1 large avocado, mashed
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Add the drained jackfruit to the skillet, breaking it apart with a fork or spoon. Stir in the smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the jackfruit to absorb the flavors.
- Pour in the BBQ sauce and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the jackfruit is cooking, prepare the avocado slaw. In a large bowl, combine the shredded green and red cabbage. In a separate bowl, mix the mashed avocado, lime juice, salt, and pepper until smooth. Fold the avocado mixture into the cabbage until well combined.
- To assemble the sliders, spoon a generous amount of the BBQ jackfruit onto each slider bun and top with a scoop of avocado slaw. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper to the BBQ jackfruit mixture.
- Substitute the slider buns with lettuce wraps for a low-carb option.
