Blackstone Garlic Parmesan Chicken Recipe
This Blackstone Garlic Parmesan Chicken is a quick dinner idea. You get tender chicken coated in a creamy, flavorful garlic parmesan sauce right from your griddle.
Key Ingredients & Tips for Griddle Chicken
- Chicken Thighs: I like using chicken thighs for this recipe because they stay juicy and flavorful on the griddle.
- Fresh Garlic: Always use fresh minced garlic for the best aroma and taste in your sauce.
- Parmesan Cheese: Grate your own Parmesan cheese. It melts smoother and gives a better overall flavor to the sauce.
What You Need for Garlic Parmesan Chicken
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp butter
⏱️ Time: 20 minutes🍽️ Yields: 4 servings
How to Make Blackstone Garlic Parmesan Chicken
Step 1: Cook Chicken
Heat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high. Add olive oil, then place chicken thighs on the griddle. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
Step 2: Make the Sauce
Add butter and minced garlic to the griddle. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the griddle. Let it gently simmer for 2 minutes to thicken slightly.
Step 3: Combine and Serve
Stir in the Parmesan cheese until it’s melted and smooth. Return the cooked chicken to the griddle, tossing it in the sauce to coat everything. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
📝 Final Note on Garlic Parmesan Sauce
If your sauce gets too thick while cooking, you can add a splash of chicken broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
Blackstone Hibachi Chicken On The Griddle
Make your favorite hibachi chicken right at home with this Blackstone griddle recipe. It’s fast, flavorful, and a great way to use your griddle for a fun meal.
Key Hibachi Chicken Tips
- Small Chicken Pieces: Cut your chicken into small, uniform pieces. This helps it cook evenly and very quickly on the hot griddle.
- High Heat Searing: Use a very hot griddle. This gives your chicken and vegetables those delicious browned edges, just like at a hibachi restaurant.
- Griddle Zones: If your griddle has different heat zones, use them! Cook the chicken on a hotter zone and the veggies on a slightly cooler one for perfect results.
What You Need for Hibachi Chicken
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs, cubed
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 cup chopped broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- For the Hibachi Sauce:
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp mirin
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 1 tsp minced garlic
⏱️ Time: 25 minutes🍽️ Yields: 4 servings
How to Make Griddle Hibachi Chicken
Step 1: Prep and Sauce
In a medium bowl, whisk together all the hibachi sauce ingredients until well combined. Set the sauce aside. Cut your chicken and vegetables into the directed sizes for even cooking.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
Heat your Blackstone griddle to high. Add sesame oil to the hot surface. Place the cubed chicken on the griddle and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring it often, until the chicken is browned and cooked all the way through. Push the cooked chicken to a cooler part of the griddle.
Step 3: Cook Vegetables and Combine
Add the broccoli, mushrooms, and onion to the hotter part of the griddle. Cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring them regularly, until they are tender-crisp. Pour the hibachi sauce over both the chicken and vegetables, tossing everything to coat evenly. Serve hot.
📝 Final Note on Serving Hibachi
For a complete and fun meal, I recommend serving your hibachi chicken with some fried rice and a side of homemade yum yum sauce!
