This recipe was absolutely delicious! As a bonus, I found a new favorite spice blend that I've already used numerous other times!

Almost half of our family is both gluten and dairy free (and the more I learn the more I lean into our entire family becoming GF and DF…more to come on that at a later date!).

But, sometimes we just crave some of those flavors!

Enter - Chicken, Bacon, Ranch & Veggies! Omg yum.

This recipe was so delish, ALL of our kids approved! Not only was it delish, but it was super easy!

I stumbled across this recipe in the morning and my mouth started to water. I immediately placed my grocery pickup order to grab after work so I could make it for dinner that night!

We’re not keto, so I cut the fat by using Canadian bacon and added just a couple of slices of cooked bacon for flavor.

I also subbed in chicken tenderloins versus chopping up the chicken breasts (time-saver!….And anyone else dislike chopping raw meat?).

I mixed the veggies, oil, and dry ranch seasoning in a bowl then laid them out on the baking sheet in a single layer.

I put the chicken tenderloins on a separate baking sheet and drizzled them with olive oil and the dry ranch seasoning. *Add more or less seasoning to your liking

Then I cooked both pans in the oven at 425F and used a meat thermometer to tell me when the chicken was done.

I broiled the veggies at the end for a couple of minutes just to crisp them up a bit.

Then plated everything and drizzled ranch on top!

Serve as is for a lower-carb meal or over rice (preferably brown), quinoa, or your choice!

Enjoy!
