Description
Delicious and easy-to-make Ranch Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers perfect for grilling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Wooden or metal skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ranch dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.
- Add the chicken cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium heat on the stovetop.
- Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
- Brush the skewers lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
- Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a spicy kick, add 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the marinade.
- Serve with a side of fresh vegetables or a simple salad for a complete meal.
