Can You Cook Raw Chicken on a Blackstone Griddle?

Yes, raw chicken cooks very well on a Blackstone griddle. The flat-top surface allows the chicken to cook evenly and develop a golden crust.

For best results:

• Preheat the Blackstone to about 400°F
• Lightly oil the griddle
• Cook chicken until the internal temperature reaches 165°F

Always use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is fully cooked before serving.

Ingredients

• Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts – Filleting the chicken into thinner pieces helps it cook faster and more evenly on the Blackstone.
• Avocado Oil – Avocado oil works well because it has a high smoke point, which is ideal for griddle cooking.
• Garlic Powder – Adds flavor without burning on the hot griddle.
• Salt & Pepper – Simple seasoning allows the natural flavor of the chicken to shine.

How to Cook Chicken Breast on a Blackstone

Step 1 – Prepare Griddle – Preheat the flat top grill over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F).

Step 2 – Oil Griddle – Put the avocado oil on the griddle and use your spatula to spread it around.

Step 3 – Place chicken on flat top – Then place the filleted chicken breasts on the griddle and season them with the garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Step 4 – Sauteed chicken breast thoroughly – Allow them to cook for 4-6 minutes until golden browned. Flip the chicken, cook for 5-6 more minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

Step 5 – Serve and Enjoy – Remove the chicken from the griddle. Let is rest for 5 minutes. Then it’s ready to serve and enjoy.

Recipe Tips

• Use instant read thermometer – Make sure to use a meat thermometer so you don’t overcook or undercook the griddle chicken breast.
• Oil Griddle – It is important to oil the griddle before cooking chicken. Since chicken breasts do not have much fat, you need that to prevent sticking.

Variation Ideas

• Change the Seasoning – Feel free to add in your favorite seasonings to change up the flavor of this chicken. Paprika, cajun seasoning and taco seasoning would all be delicious on the chicken in this recipe.
• Use different oils – You can use canola oil, vegetable oil or coconut oil instead of the avocado oil in this recipe. We just do not recommend using olive oil as it has a low smoke point.
• Change the Chicken – You can use chicken thighs or chicken tenders with this recipe.
• Loaded Chicken – Top the chicken with cheese, onions, bell peppers and slice mushrooms.
