I agreed because this recipe is not only delicious but SO easy to put together and clean up. Will make this again but I will cook the bacon and chicken beforehand to save time and easier clean up. Dice chicken and place in a bowl; add ranch mix and stir until coated. Drain bacon slices on paper towels, reserving bacon grease in the skillet. Simple to make and insanely delicious.
