Instructions

Prepare Ingredients: Cube the cooked chicken breast and cheddar cheese into bite-sized pieces. Slice cucumber into chunks or slices if not already done.
Assemble Kabobs: Thread the chicken, cheese cubes, grape tomatoes, cucumber pieces, and olives (if using) onto small wooden skewers or toothpicks, alternating ingredients to create a colorful pattern.
Chill Kabobs: Arrange the assembled kabobs on a serving platter, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill and allow flavors to meld.
Serve: Serve the cold kabobs with ranch or Italian dressing on the side for dipping. Enjoy immediately once chilled.

Notes

Use rotisserie or leftover grilled chicken for convenience and flavor.
Swap cheddar cheese for mozzarella, Colby Jack, or pepper jack to change the flavor profile.
For party platters, make bite-sized skewers with fewer ingredients per stick to increase variety and ease of eating.
