My latest cooking adventure was Low Carb Grilled Ranch Chicken. I have been on a search for a replacement for my beloved ranch seasoning and dressing. Ranch is my favorite condiment and I use it on everything. Even though Ranch is low carb, the store bought versions often contain sugar and/or other unnecessary ingredients. After trying a bunch of recipes I finally found one I LOVE and what better way to celebrate my birthday (it’s today by the way) than to throw the ranch seasoning on my other favorite, chicken.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast (4-5 pieces)
- 2 Tbsp Ranch Seasoning (recipe below)
Instructions
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Oil as necessary to prevent sticking.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Next, rub 1 Tbsp of the Ranch over one side of the chicken breasts (add some oil to the seasoning if using an outdoor grill).
- Flip the chicken over and rub the last 1 Tbsp of Ranch over the chicken breasts.
- Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes on one side. Flip the chicken over and cook for another 5 mins or until cooked through.
- Served with a side salad and Ranch Dressing for dipping.
