Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
• 2 large carrots, shredded
• 3 stalks celery, cut into matchstick-size pieces
• 3 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
• 1 cup buffalo wing sauce, divided

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Combine celery, carrots, buttermilk, blue cheese, vinegar, Worcestershire, celery seed, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.

Step 3

Place chicken thighs into a bowl and coat with 3/4 cup wing sauce.

Step 4

Grill chicken on the preheated grill for 6 minutes. Flip, and grill for 6 more minutes. Brush thighs with remaining 1/4 cup wing sauce and grill until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 2 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 5

Transfer chicken to a plate and serve with blue cheese slaw.
