This coleslaw has long been one of my favorites. The bold flavors and a bit of creaminess make it the perfect pairing with grilled chicken and pork tenderloin, and I always serve it with shrimp tacos. It’s a go-to recipe at our house all summer long, especially over holiday weekends like July 4th when we have the grill going.
Spicy Cookout Coleslaw brings bold flavors with the addition of jalapeño and Vidalia onion.
Don’t be afraid of the addition of the mayonnaise. Unlike other mayonnaise-based coleslaws, this is light and fresh tasting. The creaminess perfectly balances out the spiciness from the jalapeño and Vidalia onion.
Spicy Cookout Coleslaw pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken, pork tenderloin or shrimp tacos!
We hope you have a happy cookout!
