Instructions

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 to create a delicious marinade.
Thread the chicken and onion pieces alternately onto skewers and place them in a shallow baking dish. Pour the marinade evenly over the chicken skewers, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
Prepare the slaw: In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, onion, parsley, and Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing, mixing until well coated. For an added touch of heat, sprinkle with red pepper flakes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high. Lightly oil the grill grates, then grill the marinated chicken skewers, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked, approximately 15 minutes. Transfer the skewers to a serving platter and serve immediately with warm pita bread, cabbage slaw, sliced tomatoes, and a drizzle of extra Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing.
