Creating these Grilled Ranch Garlic Parmesan Chicken Skewers is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to achieve the best results:

1. Prepare Marinade: In a large bowl, combine ranch dressing, minced garlic, grated parmesan, olive oil, black pepper, salt, and smoked paprika (if using). Mix well.
2. Marinate Chicken: Add the chicken chunks to the marinade. Make sure they are well-coated, then cover it with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat Grill: Prepare your grill by preheating it to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
4. Skewer Chicken: Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers. Leave a little space between each piece for even cooking.
5. Grill Chicken: Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until the chicken is golden and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
6. Serve Hot: Remove skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

These straightforward steps will guide you in creating these stunning skewers to perfection.
