Spicy Chicken Skewers image

This is a great recipe! I've used it as a main dish and as an appetizer at parties. I use cornflakes for the coating and crushed red pepper flakes instead of ground red pepper--you can make it as spicy or as mild as you like. The cilantro dip cools and complements the chicken.The original recipe came from Better homes and Gardens.
