Try Out These Delicious Sides for BBQ Chicken!
Got your main dish all prepped up but can’t think of innovative side dishes? We’ve got you! Take a look at these summer-ready sides for the perfect addition to your bbq party:
Mexican Street-Style Corn Salad
If you know about elotes, you’re going to love this dish for sure! Elotes is a classic Mexican street food that consists of grilled corn with a creamy and tangy topping. This salad, on the other hand, takes the seared corn and pairs it with fluffy couscous pearls. It’s a fun twist on the street food, with grilled corn kernels with couscous tossed in a rich dressing of cumin and lime. You can also add diced tomatoes, onions, and coriander for a refreshing taste.
Creamy Mac n Cheese
Let’s be honest; no bbq party is complete without mac & cheese. Although, you can choose a ‘healthier’ option by cooking a simple roux. But why would you do that when you can go all out with creamy goodness instead? A combination of sharp cheddar, muenster, shredded mozzarella, along with gruyere cheese is the holy grail when it comes to soft and velvety mac & cheese.
Thai Cucumber Salad
A cucumber salad is essential when it comes to refreshing summer dishes. But this cucumber salad has so much more to offer. It’s crunchy, it’s sweet, and most of all, it’s oh-so-delicious! All you have to do is de-seed and dice up some cucumbers before tossing them with lime juice, sugar, garlic, red onion, and roasted peanuts for a fun fiesta in your mouth.
Hawaiian Coleslaw
Nothing screams summer like a Hawaiian coleslaw. With sweet pineapple chunks, stripes of red cabbage, chopped carrots, and a zesty ginger-soy lime vinaigrette, you’re all ready with a tropical side for your bbq chicken.
Sweet Baked Beans
A bbq without baked beans? What is this? Hell?
You can’t have a successful bbq without baked beans. After all, they are a classic. But you know what can make them even better? Cooking them to perfection in a concoction of molasses, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and onion. The end result? An appetizer that’s going to make your tastebuds dance in euphoria.
Peach Caprese Salad
Do you know what would make your garden party peachy? A peach Caprese salad, that’s what! A twist on the authentic Italian Caprese salad, this version is sweeter and much creamier. Just slice a handful of juicy peaches and ripe tomatoes. Then, simply pair it all together with blocks of burrata cheese. You can also try drizzling olive oil on top and garnish with fresh basil for that extra kick.
Smashed Buffalo Potatoes
Potatoes are the most versatile vegetables. You can make these appetizing crispy smashed buffalo potatoes in no time. Plus, the topping is to die for! The combination of a spicy buffalo sauce with freshly crushed blue cheese is to die for. Sprinkle in some jalapenos, chives, and corianders for a delectable side.
