Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced

Cheese

  • 1 cup provolone, mozzarella, or cheddar cheese, shredded or sliced

Vegetables

  • 1 large bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced

Bread

  • 4 hoagie rolls or buns

Fat & Oil

  • 2 tbsp olive oil or butter, for sautéing and toasting

Seasonings

  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • Pinch of paprika

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breast thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder for an even flavor base.
  2. Sauté Onions and Peppers: In a skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add sliced onions and bell peppers and sauté until they soften and caramelize slightly, about 7-8 minutes.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Push the veggies to the side and add chicken slices to the skillet. Cook until the chicken turns white and is cooked through, approximately 5-6 minutes.
  4. Add Cheese: Sprinkle your choice of cheese evenly over the chicken and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Cover with a lid for a few minutes until the cheese melts to gooey perfection.
  5. Toast the Bread: Slice your hoagie rolls and toast lightly in the oven or on a pan with butter for that perfect crispy, buttery bite.
  6. Assemble the Sandwich: Pile the cheesy chicken and veggie mixture generously onto the toasted bread. Close the sandwich and serve immediately while warm and melty.

Notes

  • Use thin slices of chicken to ensure quick cooking and tender texture.
  • Don’t skip toasting the bread to prevent sogginess and add crispy texture.
  • Let cheese melt fully by covering the skillet to bind ingredients well.
  • Season the vegetables with salt and pepper to enhance their natural sweetness.
  • Choose high-quality cheese for better richness and meltiness.
