Tender chicken skewers marinated in ranch, garlic, and parmesan, then grilled for vibrant, irresistible flavor.
# What You'll Need:
→ Chicken Skewers
01 - 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix
04 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
06 - 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
07 - 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
08 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
09 - 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
10 - 8 to 10 wooden or metal skewers
→ Serving (optional)
11 - Extra ranch dressing for dipping
12 - Lemon wedges
# Directions:
01 - If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, ranch seasoning mix, minced garlic, black pepper, kosher salt, grated parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Stir until evenly blended.
03 - Add chicken cubes to the marinade and toss thoroughly to ensure even coating. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
04 - Thread marinated chicken pieces onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece for even cooking.
05 - Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high temperature.
06 - Place skewers on the grill and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and lightly charred on the edges. Ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F.
07 - Transfer finished skewers to a platter. Garnish with extra parsley and serve with ranch dressing and lemon wedges if desired.
