Dressing
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup oriental sesame oil
1/4 cup sliced green onions
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
3/4 cup soy sauce
Slaw and skewers
2 cups shredded green cabbage
2 cups shredded red cabbage
1 large red bell pepper, cut into matchstick-size strips
1 large green bell pepper, cut into matchstick-size strips

I'm not usually a fan of chicken skewers, but these were really good! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the vegetable slaw was a nice touch.
