Description
A simple yet flavorful dish that combines tender chicken breasts with rich garlic and savory Parmesan cheese, perfect for busy weeknights or special occasions.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp dried Italian herbs (oregano and basil)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat and drizzle with olive oil.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and dried herbs.
- Sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
- Lower the heat slightly, add minced garlic, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Generously sprinkle grated Parmesan over the chicken, then cover with a lid or aluminum foil for 2-3 minutes until melted.
- Remove from heat, let rest for a couple of minutes, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve.
Notes
For the best results, allow the chicken to rest after cooking to ensure juiciness. Fresh garlic enhances flavor compared to pre-minced varieties.
