We ended up marinating the chicken overnight due to a change in dinner plans and the chicken was really tasty. We loved the slaw too. You don't need to make a sandwich of this. It stands alone
I picked this recipe because we had leftover cabbage and carrots from Guy Fieri's mu shu chicken. It's a good way to use the same ingredient in completely different ways.

I made this recipe for my girls and they loved it. They only thing I changed was the cabbage. We don't really care for cabbage, so I used broccoli slaw instead. Great. Will make it again.
