Kona Grill’s Red Pepper Coleslaw features gorgonzola cheese and roasted red peppers mixed into finely shredded cabbage. A perfect side for chicken or pork!
One of my favorite things to get at Kona Grill is their chicken satay appetizer because it comes with this amazing red pepper coleslaw. I am addicted to the stuff, it is a little spicy and a little sweet and just all around so good. It has gorgonzola cheese and roasted red peppers mixed in to finely shredded cabbage with a slightly spicy coleslaw sauce that is to die for. I remember the first time that we ordered this we were fighting over the last bites of this coleslaw. Now when I go, if we don’t get the chicken satay I still ask for a side of this tasty slaw.
This red pepper coleslaw goes great with our chicken satay recipe HERE. But really it makes a good side dish to almost any meal. And it tastes fantastic on sandwiches too. I am going to make a grilled chicken sandwich with pepper jack cheese and top it with this slaw tonight. I can hardly wait! It would be super yummy on our Cajun Chicken Po’ Boy Sandwiches HERE.

How have I never noticed Gorgonzola in this! I’m the same way; every time we go to Kona I have to get the satay, and that slaw is a big big part of the reason. I don’t even like coleslaw typically! Have you ever tried to make their teriyaki dipping sauce that’s served with the satay?

I haven’t tried making their teriyaki sauce, but that’s a great idea for an upcoming recipe. Stay tuned!

The real coleslaw does not have gorgonzola. It has white cheddar cheese.
