Ingredients

Scale

1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3–4 breasts)
1 oz ranch seasoning mix (1 packet)
4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
In a large bowl, combine ranch seasoning, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and grated Parmesan until well mixed.
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes; metal skewers do not require soaking.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers without packing them too tightly.
Grill for about 10-12 minutes total, flipping halfway through until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest for five minutes before serving.
