Description

This Garlic Parmesan Grilled Chicken recipe is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a weekend barbecue.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 2 pounds chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
  • 1/8 cup avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Garlic Parmesan Sauce:

  • 2/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill.
  2. In a large bowl, add the chicken breasts, avocado oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss until the chicken is completely coated.

  3. Place chicken on grill.
  4. Using tongs, place chicken breasts on the preheated grill, ensuring they are not touching. Grill over direct medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side.

  5. Prepare the sauce.
  6. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, and parsley. Pour the sauce over the grilled chicken, toss to coat, and let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.


Notes

  • If the chicken sticks to the grill, let it cook another minute before flipping.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, microwave or warm in a 350°F oven until heated through.
