What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Country Casual Cravings: KFC Copycat Coleslaw! Instead of running into town to the local chicken drive-through for the national brand of coleslaw we’re all familiar with, you can make this popular side dish at home. It goes well on pork sliders, stuffed into fish tacos, or layered over sloppy joes. Knowing you made it fresh may ease your mind when it comes to being susceptible to all the germs running rampant right now. A container of coleslaw will last up to 5 days in the refrigerator, leaving you with many options for jazzing up a meal.
KFC COPYCAT COLESLAW
Ingredients:
8 cups cabbage, finely chopped (or two bags pre-shredded coleslaw mix)
1/4 cup carrots, shredded
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 teaspoons white vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup milk
Instructions:
Combine the chopped cabbage and shredded carrots in a large bowl. Set aside. In another bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, buttermilk, white vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, sea salt, cayenne pepper, and milk. Pour dressing over cabbage mixture. Refrigerate one hour. Toss and serve.
Giving the Colonel a run for his money, I see.

Oh no. I’ll never measure up to mastering the taste of Colonel Sanders’ coleslaw. This is second-best. 😜🍃

I like to make the dressing and keep it in a separate container to make this last longer for just the two of us. Thanks for recipe!
