Step 2: Place skewers in a dish big enough to hold them and pour half of the dressing over them. Rotate skewers and pour in remaining dressing making sure to evenly coat all of the chicken. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour.

Tips:

If you’re unable to grill, you can use your oven broiler and a broiler pan. Place oven rack 6 inches below broiler.
To quickly crisp up your lettuce, place it in a bowl with water and ice cubes for a few minutes.
