# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

02 - In a bowl, toss chicken cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

03 - Thread chicken, red bell pepper, and red onion onto skewers, alternating pieces.

04 - Brush skewers with half the BBQ sauce.

05 - Grill skewers for 12–15 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with remaining BBQ sauce during the last 5 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.

06 - While the chicken cooks, arrange mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, radishes, and sweetcorn on serving plates or a large platter.

07 - Whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, chives, parsley, dill, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Thin with milk to desired consistency.

08 - Place grilled chicken skewers on top of the salad. Drizzle with herby ranch dressing or serve on the side. Serve immediately.
