Creating slanted dashed line in Illustrator

by

I’m trying to create a slanted dashed line in Adobe Illustrator, something like this:

I’ve tried to create a dashed line and then apply shear to it, but for some reason when I do the shear nothing happens.
I’m using Adobe Illustrator from the Creative Cloud.

Any suggestions? Maybe another way to do the slanted dashes?

Thank you !
