Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1.5-inch cubes
8 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into thirds
1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix
2 tbsp olive oil
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 red onion, cut into chunks
Wooden or metal skewers (if wooden, soak in water for 30 minutes)
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix ranch seasoning with olive oil. Add chicken cubes and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Thread chicken, bacon, peppers, and onion alternately onto skewers. Grill for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and bacon is crispy. Serve hot with a side of ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Soak wooden skewers ahead of time to prevent burning. You can prep these a day in advance and refrigerate until ready to grill. Try adding zucchini or cherry tomatoes for more variety.
FAQs
Can I use turkey bacon? Yes, but it won’t crisp up the same as pork bacon.
What if I don’t have a grill? Use a grill pan or broil in the oven for similar results.
Can I bake them? Yes, bake at 400°F for about 20–25 minutes, turning once halfway through.
How long should I marinate the chicken? At least 30 minutes, but up to 8 hours for best flavor.
