Method

Preparing Chicken

1. Blend all ingredients for marinating in a food processor together, and reserve;
2. Marinate chicken brochettes "a la minute" and sauté in a non-stick pan with little oil at a medium temperature (this is a fast operation, about 35 seconds on each side, do not overcook) or on a high shelf on the BBQ grill.

Preparing Slaw

2. Mix ingredients for dressing well together.
3. Toss vegetable with dressing.
