Blackened Chicken Bites with Dairy-Free Ranch

Ingredients

• 1 lb Chicken Breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 2 tbsp Blackening Seasoning
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1/2 cup Dairy-Free Mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup Dairy-Free Sour Cream
• 1 tbsp Fresh Dill, chopped
• 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
• 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
• 1 tsp Lemon Juice

Instructions

1. 1Place the 1 lb of chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes, in a medium bowl.
2. 2Add the 2 tbsp of blackening seasoning to the bowl with the chicken and toss until all the chicken pieces are evenly coated.
3. 3Heat the 1 tbsp of olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat (400°F/200°C).
4. 4Carefully add the seasoned chicken to the hot skillet in a single layer. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning the pieces occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and has a blackened crust. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
5. 5While the chicken is cooking, prepare the dairy-free ranch. In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup of dairy-free mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of dairy-free sour cream, 1 tbsp of fresh dill (chopped), 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, 1/2 tsp of onion powder, and 1 tsp of lemon juice until smooth and well combined.
6. 6Serve the hot blackened chicken bites immediately with the prepared dairy-free ranch for dipping.
