4.9 from 85 reviews

A vibrant and flavorful Sweet & Spicy Pickle Slaw combining crunchy green cabbage, grated carrots, and tangy dill pickles tossed in a creamy Sriracha and honey dressing, perfect as a refreshing side dish or topping.

Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, grated
  • ½ cup dill pickles, chopped
  • ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced

Dressing

  • ½ cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt)
  • 2 tbsp Sriracha sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Prep the Vegetables: Shred the green cabbage finely and grate the carrots. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, chopped dill pickles, and thinly sliced red onion to create the vegetable base for the slaw.
  2. Make the Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Sriracha sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar until smooth and well combined, forming a creamy and spicy dressing.
  3. Combine: Pour the prepared dressing over the vegetable mixture. Toss thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing, ensuring balanced flavor in every bite.
  4. Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the slaw for at least one hour. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and the vegetables to soak up the dressing.
  5. Serve: Give the slaw a good toss before serving to redistribute the dressing. Enjoy this sweet and spicy pickle slaw as a delicious and refreshing side dish or sandwich topping.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt as a healthier alternative to mayonnaise to lower fat content.
  • Adjust the Sriracha amount based on your preferred spice level.
  • For extra crunch, add chopped celery or bell peppers.
  • This slaw pairs well with grilled meats or as a topping for tacos and sandwiches.
  • Keep refrigerated and consume within 2-3 days for optimal freshness.
