One of my favorite chicken recipes to make while grilling season is still in full effect, these blackened chicken thigh skewers with a cilantro ranch jalapeno ranch dipping sauce are perfect for serving alongside roasted potatoes, a side salad, or some rice. The chicken is marinated in my favorite Tony Chachere’s chicken marinade and then seasoned on both sides with their Spices and Herb seasoning for the ultimate blackened and tender chicken. I make an easy dipping sauce to go alongside that you will want to keep in the fridge at all times for all of the things! These blackened chicken thighs are a must make before the end of summer!
