Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup Marie's® Original Coleslaw dressing
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cumin
⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 boneless chicken breasts, cut in large bite-sized pieces
1 large onion, chopped in large pieces
8 wooden skewers, soaked in water
½ head green cabbage, shredded
½ red onion, thinly sliced
1 small bunch flat-leaf parsley, chopped
½ cup Marie's® Original Coleslaw dressing
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
6 pieces pita bread
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
Marie's® Original Coleslaw dressing, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken: In a mixing bowl, whisk together Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing, paprika, cumin, cinnamon, garlic, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • Alternate pieces of chicken and onion onto each skewer, then place skewers in a shallow baking dish. Pour the marinade mixture over the chicken skewers, coating them well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Prepare the slaw: In a large bowl, stir together the cabbage, onion, parsley, and Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing until thoroughly combined. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick of spice, if you like.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grates with a little oil to coat and grill the marinated chicken skewers. Turn skewers occasionally until chicken is fully cooked, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and serve immediately with warm pita bread, slaw, sliced tomatoes, and extra Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing for drizzling.
