Tips
- Wipe the marinade off before grilling. Wet dressing burns before the chicken cooks.
- Pull at 160 F and let carryover finish it. 165 F on the grill means dry chicken on the plate.
- Sharp cheddar stands up to the ranch. Mild cheddar disappears.
Variations
- Add barbecue sauce under the cheese for a different profile.
- Use pepper jack instead of cheddar for heat.
- Serve sliced over a salad instead of whole.
Serving Ideas
- Serve with steamed broccoli and a baked potato.
- Slice into a wrap with lettuce and extra ranch.
- Cube leftovers into a pasta salad.
