Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 stalks celery, cut into matchstick-size pieces
2 large carrots, shredded
⅓ cup buttermilk
⅓ cup crumbled blue cheese
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon celery seed
½ teaspoon salt
3 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 cup buffalo wing sauce, divided

Steps:

  • Combine celery, carrots, buttermilk, blue cheese, vinegar, Worcestershire, celery seed, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Place chicken thighs into a bowl and coat with 3/4 cup wing sauce.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • 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).
  • Transfer chicken to a plate and serve with blue cheese slaw.
