Trim the fat off the boneless skinless chicken thighs.

Season the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and garlic.

Rub olive oil on the chicken to help the seasoning stick.

Place the seasoned chicken in the fridge while preparing the slaw.

Chop half a head of cabbage, a few celery stalks, and a couple of green onions.

Grate about three-quarters of a carrot.

Use a mandolin slicer for thinly sliced celery, or slice it with a knife if preferred.

In a bowl, combine the chopped veggies with a couple heaping tablespoons of mayonnaise, about a quarter to half cup of blue cheese dressing, and salt to taste.

Add a splash of red wine vinegar, a couple teaspoons of celery seed, and a couple big tablespoons of sugar to the slaw mixture.

Mix the slaw ingredients together with gloves.

Grill the chicken over direct heat, flipping every couple of minutes until cooked through, about 10-14 minutes total.

Remove the chicken from the grill when it reaches 175-185°F, or 165°F if preferred.

Melt a few tablespoons of butter in a pot and mix in Frank's Red Hot buffalo sauce.

Dredge the grilled chicken in the buffalo sauce and wing dust mixture.

Assemble the sandwich with the Kings Hawaiian sweet buns, slaw, and chicken.
