Description

This KFC coleslaw copycat recipe recreates the creamy, tangy crunch of the original.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small head green cabbage, finely chopped
  • 2 medium carrots, shredded or finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced onion
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Finely chop the cabbage and carrots, and mince the onion. Use a food processor for best texture but do not over-process.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, buttermilk, milk, sugar, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Add chopped cabbage, carrots, and onion to the bowl and mix thoroughly to coat all vegetables evenly.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to blend and the slaw to chill.
