  2. While rice or potatoes are cooking, preheat grill or grill pan to 425 degrees. Season chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, chili powder, and cumin. Grill 8 minutes per side, or until chicken is cooked through.
  3. While the chicken cooks, make coleslaw. In a bowl, mix mayo, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper and whisk until combined. Stir in bag of coleslaw and chill.
  4. When chicken is cooked, cut into bite size pieces. Assemble bowls- rice or potatoes, chicken, slaw, and toppings of choice- pickles, pickled onion, ect., then drizzle with hot honey.
