📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prep the chicken
2
After dicing the chicken into small cubes, mix it in a bowl with the salt, minced adobo chilies, mayo, and cumin. The mixture should coat each piece of chicken. This effectively marinates the chicken but will also help with browning during cooking. You can move on to cooking the chicken right away, or optionally let it marinate overnight.

Cook the chicken
4
Add the marinated chicken cubes to a pan or griddle over high heat. Allow them to sear undisturbed for a few minutes or until color develops on one side, then flip them periodically to finish cooking through and get color on different sides. Once cooked through, set the chicken bites aside to rest.
5
Make the dressing
6
Add all jalapeño ranch ingredients to a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth. Taste and adjust with salt and more lime juice, if needed. If it's too thick, adjust the consistency with a splash of water.
