Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Seasonings and Spices:
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Sauce and Flavoring Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- Optional: crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Heat Blackstone griddle to 375°F for 10 minutes, creating an even cooking surface for your chicken.
- Pat 4 chicken breasts completely dry with paper towels. Massage 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and ½ teaspoon paprika directly onto the meat.
- Lay seasoned chicken breasts onto hot griddle. Cook 5-6 minutes on first side until golden brown edges appear.
- Flip chicken and continue cooking 5-6 minutes until internal temperature reaches precisely 165°F using a meat thermometer.
- Transfer chicken to clean plate. Allow meat to rest 3-4 minutes so juices redistribute evenly.
- Melt 4 tablespoons butter in small pan over medium heat for 30-45 seconds.
- Add 4 minced garlic cloves to butter. Saute 20-30 seconds until aroma becomes fragrant.
- Remove butter from heat. Quickly stir in ½ cup grated parmesan and 2 tablespoons chopped parsley.
- Slice chicken diagonally into thin strips. Pour warm garlic parmesan sauce directly over meat.
- Sprinkle optional red pepper flakes for extra kick. Serve immediately while sauce and chicken remain hot.
Notes
- Always use a meat thermometer to check chicken’s internal temperature, as cooking times can vary based on thickness.
- Let chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to help retain juices and ensure maximum tenderness.
- For a low-carb version, skip any breading and focus on the flavorful garlic parmesan sauce.
- Flatten chicken breasts to an even thickness before cooking to guarantee consistent and quick cooking across the entire piece.
