12 minThis is the slaw you bring when the usual mayo-drenched stuff just won’t cut it.
Three kinds of pepper, sweet red and green bells plus a hit of fresh jalapeno, get tossed with shredded angel hair cabbage and scallions. The dressing is bright and clean: white wine vinegar, fresh lime juice, and just a whisper of sugar to round things out.
No cooking required. No heavy dressing weighing it down. Just crisp, vibrant crunch with a little heat at the finish.
It pairs naturally with grilled meats, pulled pork sandwiches, fish tacos, or honestly just a fork and a healthy appetite.
Pro Tips
- Seed the jalapeno completely for mild heat, or leave a few seeds in if you like things spicy
- Toss the slaw right before serving to keep the cabbage from wilting and going limp
- Angel hair coleslaw mix works best here for its fine, delicate texture, but you can shred regular cabbage thin in a pinch
