- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat the grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the chicken pieces to coat evenly.
- Grill the Chicken: Thread the chicken onto skewers or place directly on the grill. Grill for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: While the chicken is grilling, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Assemble: Transfer the cooked chicken to a serving platter and pour the creamy garlic sauce over it. Garnish with fresh parsley.
- Serve: Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Feel free to customize the seasoning of the chicken to suit your taste preferences.
- This creamy garlic sauce also pairs well with grilled vegetables or pasta.
- Make sure to monitor the grill to prevent the chicken from overcooking.
