This Chicken Bacon Ranch Skillet is made on the Blackstone and is a quick and easy dinner made all in one.
I recently got a Blackstone grill and I am LOVING it! It has been so easy to cook on and I love that dinner clean up has been so easy to do! The only dishes that we have to do are plates from dinner and the bowls I use to bring food outside. So not having to wash pots and pans has been a major win for this mom!
Ingredients for Chicken Bacon Ranch Skillet
- Chicken – I use cubed chicken breast, but you can also use chicken tenders or boneless chicken thighs.
- Bacon – thick cut is our favorite.
- Potatoes – I love using Yukon gold potatoes, but your favorite potatoes work here.
- Seasonings – ranch seasoning, salt, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder.
- Cheese – shredded cheddar is our preffered
How to Make Chicken Bacon Ranch on the Blackstone
- Preheat Blackstone to medium heat adding a thin coat of oil to the surface.
- Add diced potatoes to one side of the grill. Cook for about 15 minutes before flipping.
- While the potatoes are cooking add the bacon to the other half of the grill. Cook for about 5 minutes per side or until the bacon is crispy. Remove from grill and set aside for later.
- After removing the bacon this is a good time to flip the potatoes. Add more oil to the potatoes if needed.
- Add chicken to the grill and cook in the bacon grease. Season the chicken and potatoes with the salt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and ranch seasoning. Cook chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side.
- Once the chicken is fully cooked combine the potatoes and chicken. Layer on shredded cheese and bacon. Cook on the grill until the cheese is fully melted then remove and enjoy!
Can I make this if I don’t have a Blackstone?
Absolutely! Here is how I would cook this if I was using a skillet.
- In a large skillet over medium heat cook the bacon until crispy and remove. Chop up bacon.
- In a small bowl combine ranch seasoning, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Add potatoes to the skillet, season with half of the seasoning mix and cook for about 20 minutes until potatoes are fork tender and the outside is crispy. Remove and set aside.
- Add chicken to the skillet, season with remaining seasonings and cook for about 5-8 minutes per side.
- Once chicken is completely cooked add potatoes back in, top with cheddar cheese and bacon. Cook until cheese has melted and enjoy!
