Ingredients
- 2 cans (20 oz each) young green jackfruit in brine, drained and rinsed
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup vegan BBQ sauce
- 12 small slider buns, preferably whole wheat
- 1 cup vegan coleslaw
- Optional garnish: chopped cilantro or pickles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Pull the jackfruit pieces apart with your hands or a fork to mimic the texture of pulled pork.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until onions are translucent.
- Add the shredded jackfruit, smoked paprika, cumin, black pepper, and salt to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
- Cook for about 5 minutes, then add the BBQ sauce. Stir well, ensuring the jackfruit is evenly coated.
- Transfer the saucy jackfruit to a baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until the edges are slightly crispy.
- Toast the slider buns lightly, if desired.
- Assemble the sliders by placing a generous amount of pulled jackfruit on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a spoonful of vegan coleslaw and optional garnish.
- Cover with the top half of the bun and serve warm.
Serve these delightful sliders warm, and watch them disappear! They're perfect for parties, family gatherings, or even as a tasty snack during game night.
