Grilled Ranch Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers Ingredients
- 1½ pounds chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces

How to Make Grilled Ranch Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers
Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, ranch seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add chicken pieces and toss until fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare the Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20–30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
Step 3: Preheat the Grill
Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
Step 4: Grill the Chicken
Place skewers on the grill and cook for 12–15 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is fully cooked and slightly charred.
Step 5: Add Parmesan
Remove skewers from the grill and immediately sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese so it melts slightly into the hot chicken.
Step 6: Serve
Serve hot with extra ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips and Variations
- Use chicken thighs for extra juiciness
- Add bell peppers or onions to the skewers for extra flavor
- Sprinkle red pepper flakes for a spicy kick
