- Carefully add the seasoned chicken pieces to the hot griddle in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

Remove the cooked chicken from the griddle and set aside on a plate, tented loosely with foil to keep it warm.1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

Notes
Leftover Blackstone Garlic Parmesan Chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To reheat, opt for the stovetop for the best results. Place the chicken and sauce in a skillet over medium-low heat until warmed through, adding a splash of chicken broth or water if the sauce has thickened too much. Avoid the microwave, as it can sometimes make the chicken rubbery and the sauce oily.
For longer storage, you can freeze the cooked chicken and sauce. Allow it to cool completely, then transfer to a freezer-safe container or heavy-duty freezer bag. It can be kept frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat as directed above.
