Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts (about 1 lb), trimmed and patted dry
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 a lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Slice chicken in half through the center to create two thinner chicken breasts, four total.
- Add chicken breast into a bowl with 2 tablespoons olive oil, juice from 1/2 a lemon, salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder, paprika, and parsley. Toss to combine and coat each chicken breast with spices. Allow to sit for 10 minutes on the countertop.
- Heat the Blackstone Griddle by turning two side by side burners to medium heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto the griddle and spread it out with a spatula. Allow to heat for a minute. Lay the chicken breast onto the griddle. It should be hot enough to hear a sizzle. Cover with lid for 4 minutes.
- Flip the chicken breast and cook for another 4-6 minutes, covered, until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Remove to a plate and tent with foil. Allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board.
- Optional: Slice chicken into strips.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- The marinated chicken can sit for up to an hour on the countertop. I don't recommend marinating longer because the lemon juice will start to break down the chicken too much.
- Use an instant read internal thermometer to check the temperature of the chicken for the best results!
- The time it takes to cook the chicken depends on the thickness, which is why the thermometer is so important. If the chicken breasts are sizzling crazy, reduce the heat a bit.
