I love KFC's coleslaw way more than I like their chicken! I've tried over the years to replicate their slaw, and finally think I've got it! It really does need the hour of refrigeration time, and is even better the next day. I like using the bagged slaw mix because it makes it super easy and quick. but you can definitely chop your own cabbage and carrots.

    Place the tarragon leaves on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to finely mince the leaves. Place them in a medium bowl and add the rest of the dressing ingredients. Stir until smooth.
  • 2
    Place the coleslaw mix on a large cutting board. Using a large chef's knife, chop the mix into small pieces. I do mine in two batches, so I get them it the size I want and it doesn't fly all over the place!
  • 3
    Place the minced coleslaw mix and minced onions in a large bowl. Pour the dressing on top and stir until everything is well coated.
