Teaching myself to grill last summer was the best thing I’ve ever done. Mostly because I was able to boil water to make instant coffee when Texas frozen in February but also because of recipes like this Rosemary Ranch Grilled Chicken!
We used to make this recipe all the time when we lived in Colorado. It is quick, full of flavor, and the whole family loves it.
🍗 Ingredients
- ½ cup olive oil
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- 3 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts – you can use thighs if you prefer!
👩🏼🍳 Instructions
- Make marinade. In a mixing bowl, stir together olive oil, ranch dressing, worcestershire sauce, rosemary, salt, lemon juice, white vinegar, and pepper. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- Marinate chicken. Cut chicken into 1-inch chunks. Place chicken in marinated and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Grill chicken. Preheat the grill for medium-high heat. Thread chicken onto skewers and discard marinade. Grill skewers 8 – 12 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear.
🔥 How Hot Should The Grill Be For Chicken?
The grill should be on medium-high heat and should reach about 400F. You want to make sure the grill is nice and hot before you add your chicken so you get those pretty grill marks.
❔ How Long To Grill Chicken Kabobs
Because you’re cutting the chicken into 1-inch chunks, the kabobs only need to be cooked for 5 – 7 minutes per side.
A meat thermometer should read 165F – test the thickest piece of chicken and stick the thermometer right in the center of it.
⏲ How Long Are Grilled Chicken Kabobs Good For?
Grilled chicken is good in the fridge for up to 4 days. Make sure to store it in an airtight container – these are my favorite glass containers for storing leftovers.

Just wanted to say hi and that I had your blog for the SRC this month. Just posted a version of your white chocolate fudge on my site.
Thanks for the inspiration and you have SO many amazing desserts. I mean…woman….I am impressed. At one point I had about 17 links of yours open trying to decide. Seriously…amazing!
Erin says
When we move and get our own place I can’t wait to make fun grilling recipes!
Curt says
Those are some mighty tasty looking chunks of grilled chicken! I’ll bet the Ranch dressing is great on that.
Katrina @ In Katrina's Kitchen says
Brrr! Looks like yummy chicken. Can you believe that we still don’t own a grill? I keep wanting to get one based on the fact that my husbnd will be excited to cook. ;)
amanda says
You definitely need to get one! We got ours around Father’s Day when everyone was doing the grill sales and ended up saving 50 bucks or so.
Maggie @ A Bitchin' Kitchen says
Bottled ranch dressing is a huge guilty pleasure for me…I’ve tried to make homemade but it just can’t beat Hidden Valley for me, haha. This looks great, and I bet the ranch dressing kept it really moist!
Emily says
I’m sad to see grilling season go too. It doesn’t really make a difference in how much I will have to cook though; I do all the grilling and indoor cooking!
Rachel @ Baked by Rachel says
Sounds and looks great! Really almost any chicken recipe will make me happy. :) Oh and as for the grill – it can totally still be done in the winter! We grill year round (or rather hubs does).
