Notes

For best results, make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing with the ranch seasoning to ensure a smooth consistency. You can also use pre-cooked bacon or bake the bacon in the oven while prepping the chicken to save time. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preference, and for additional flavor, consider adding a dash of garlic powder or onion powder.
