Whether you’re cooking for the family or meal-prepping for the week, this chicken recipe is high in protein, low in carbs, and loaded with flavor.

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (pounded evenly)
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley for garnish
• Optional: lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep
Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat. Pat chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and paprika.

2. Garlic Parmesan Mixture
In a small bowl, mix grated parmesan and minced garlic together. Set aside.

3. Sear the Chicken
Add olive oil to the hot griddle. Place chicken on the griddle and sear for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).

4. Add Garlic Parmesan Crust
In the final 2 minutes of cooking, top each chicken breast with a spoonful of the garlic-parmesan mixture and a pat of butter. Cover with a griddle dome or foil to melt the cheese and infuse flavor.

5. Garnish and Serve
Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve hot with lemon wedges or over a bed of sautéed veggies or rice.

Tips for Success

• Even Thickness: Pound chicken breasts for even cooking and a better sear.
• Don’t Skip the Dome: Covering helps the garlic and cheese melt together into a golden crust.
• Try Thighs: You can swap breasts for boneless thighs if you prefer a juicier cut.

Serving Suggestions

• Pair with garlic mashed potatoes or grilled asparagus for a full meal.
• Slice and serve on a Caesar salad for a low-carb dinner option.
• Use leftovers for wraps, sandwiches, or pasta dishes.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or griddle to retain texture.
