Total time: 30 min
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients: 2 cups thinly sliced red cabbage; 1/2 cup sour cream; 2 tablespoons bread-and-butter pickle juice, plus ¼ cup bread-and-butter pickles; 1 teaspoon table salt, divided; 1/2 teaspoon pepper; 1 cup cider vinegar; 1/2 cup water; 1/4 cup sugar; 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes; 1 (2½-pound) rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded, meat shredded into bite-size pieces (3 cups); 4 hamburger buns

Why This Recipe Works

Using store-bought rotisserie chicken cuts hours off the cooking time.

Before You Begin

Coleslaw mix can be used in place of the red cabbage, if desired.

Instructions

Combine cabbage, sour cream, pickle juice, ½ teaspoon salt, and pepper in bowl; set aside.

Bring vinegar, water, sugar, pepper flakes, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt to boil in medium saucepan over high heat. Cook until reduced by half, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in chicken and cook until warmed through, about 1 minute. Remove saucepan from heat.

Divide chicken evenly among bun bottoms. Top with ½ cup cabbage mixture, then divide pickles evenly over cabbage. Cover with bun tops. Serve.
