Ingredients

  • 4 cups shredded cabbage (green or purple, or both)
  • 1 medium carrot finely shredded
  • 2 tablespoons green onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 (7oz) can chipotle in adobo 1 pepper, finely chopped + 2 tbsp sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and salt. Stir well.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add shredded cabbage, carrot, chopped green onion, cilantro, and dressing. Stir to incorporate the sauce.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Chipotle peppers are hot so adjust the amount of peppers you use to your desired heat preference. We've used 1 pepper from the can, plus 2 tbsp of the sauce.
  • You can use a bag of cole slaw mix (14 oz) instead of shredding your own cabbage, if preferred.
