Chicken Skewers with Bacon Ranch Coleslaw

Today we bring you a great dinner recipe – Chicken Skewers with Bacon Ranch Coleslaw. The secrets to this incredibly flavored dish are 3 products from Tony Chachere’s Creole Cuisine; original creole seasoning, creole style ranch salad dressing, creole style chicken 30-minute marinade. The ranch salad dressing transforms your coleslaw into a more flavorful side that blends well with the chicken, onion skewers, and pepper.

Making the skewers is as easy as it gets, all you have to do is use Tony’s marinade to marinate the chicken for about 30 minutes and then add finely sliced onions with yellow and green peppers. While the chicken is marinating, proceed to make a creamy, luscious improvement on the regular coleslaw. The coleslaw is made from the simple combination of red onion, carrots, bacon, green peppers, red and green cabbage, and a little granulated sugar all whipped into Tony’s creole style ranch dressing.
