Method
 

  1. Step 1: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. This ensures a nice sear on the chicken.
  2. Step 2: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then brush them generously with BBQ sauce.
  3. Step 3: Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Brush with additional BBQ sauce during the last few minutes.
  4. Step 4: While the chicken is grilling, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  5. Step 5: Toss the potato wedges and halved baby potatoes in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
  6. Step 6: Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
  7. Step 7: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and garlic powder. Mix well until everything is coated and set aside.
  8. Step 8: Once everything is cooked, assemble your plate with the BBQ chicken, crispy fries, baby potatoes, and a generous serving of creamy slaw. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes
