    The next day, make the ranch slaw. Tip the cabbage, onion, celery, mayonnaise, soured cream, vinegar and chives into a medium bowl, then season to taste and mix until everything is well-combined.

  • step 3

    Light the barbecue. When the coals are ashen, put the chicken on the grill and cook for 8 mins on each side, basting with the leftover marinade as you go. Alternatively, cook the chicken under a hot grill for 8-10 mins on each side, basting with the marinade. When the chicken is cooked through, put half a slice of cheese on each piece and leave to melt for 1 min. Put two chicken thighs on the base of each bun, spoon over some slaw and sandwich with the bun tops.
