Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined.
  2. Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over them. Ensure each piece is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor absorption.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F or 190-205°C).
  4. Once the grill is hot, place the marinated chicken breasts onto the grill grates. Grill for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  5. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For optimal flavor, consider marinating the chicken overnight. You can also substitute chicken thighs for breasts for a more flavorful alternative. If you prefer cooking methods other than grilling, you can bake the chicken at 375°F for about 25-30 minutes.
