Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 4 ounces ranch dressing (1/2 cup, preferably homemade)
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free parmesan, divided
  • 1/4 bunch fresh parsley, chopped (about 1/4 cup finely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Equipment

  • skewers
  • Grill
  • oven
  • air fryer
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Trim and chop your boneless skinless chicken breast into bite-sized chunks.
  2. Toss chicken with ranch dressing, 1/4 cup parmesan, minced garlic, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
  3. Thread the seasoned chicken onto skewers (soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes first).
  4. GRILL - Heat grill to medium heat (350°F). Brush grates with olive oil. Place kabobs on grill and cook for 5 minutes per side until chicken reaches internal temperature of 165°F.
  5. OVEN - Preheat oven to Broil. Place skewers on baking sheet with parchment paper. Broil for 5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. AIR FRYER - Cook at 425°F for 12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  7. Once cooked, sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese and salt to taste.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Marinate for longer (overnight) for more intense flavor. Check chicken with meat thermometer to ensure 165°F internal temperature. Leave space between chicken pieces on skewers for even cooking.
