Preheat Blackstone to medium heat adding a thin coat of oil to the surface.
Add diced potatoes and onions 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, cut into pieces and set aside for later.
After removing the bacon this is a good time to flip the potatoes and add the diced peppers. 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!

Don't skip cooking the chicken in the bacon grease. That step adds so much flavor. It is one of those little things that makes a big difference.
Cut everything in similar sizes. Uniform cubes on the chicken and potatoes means everything finishes cooking around the same time.
Add the bell peppers and onion after you flip the chicken. They cook faster than the potatoes and chicken, so adding them a little later keeps them from getting too soft.
Keep the cheese covered for a minute. If your Blackstone has a dome lid, use it when the cheese goes on. It melts SO much faster. No lid? Just tent some foil over the top.
Taste before you add extra ranch. Start with 2 tablespoons and go from there. Ranch seasoning can vary by brand and some are saltier than others.
