Instructions

Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a small mixing bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Brush the chicken breasts with this mixture.
Place the chicken on the grill pan and cook for 3-4 minutes, then flip them over.
In another mixing bowl, combine ½ cup of parmesan cheese and provolone cheese.
Top the chicken with the cheese mixture and grill for an additional 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken and place it on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Preheat the oven’s broiler on high.
In a separate bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs with the remaining ¼ cup parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons melted butter, then sprinkle it over the chicken.
Broil for 1-2 minutes until the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy, watching closely to avoid burning.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken breasts before grilling.
Using fresh grated cheese can enhance the dish’s flavor and texture.
Serve with a side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
