A delicious twist on the classic Philly cheesesteak using tender sliced chicken breast, sautéed onions and peppers, melted cheese, all served in a soft hoagie roll. Perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Ingredients
- 1 lb 450g chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper thinly sliced
- 4 slices provolone cheese or American cheese
- 4 hoagie rolls or Amoroso rolls
- 2 tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: hot sauce or mushrooms for extra flavor
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Thinly slice the chicken breast into strips. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook the veggies: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and green peppers. Sauté until soft and slightly caramelized (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Cook the chicken: In the same skillet, add remaining oil and cook the chicken strips until fully cooked and lightly browned (about 6–8 minutes).
- Combine: Return the sautéed onions and peppers to the skillet with the chicken. Mix well and cook for 1–2 more minutes.
- Add cheese: Place slices of cheese over the chicken and veggies in the skillet. Cover the skillet for a minute or two until the cheese melts.
- Toast the rolls: Lightly toast the hoagie rolls to add a slight crisp texture.
- Assemble: Spoon the cheesy chicken and veggie mixture into each toasted roll. Add optional toppings like hot sauce or mushrooms if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- For a spicier version, add sliced jalapeños or hot sauce.
- Substitute provolone with Cheez Whiz for an authentic Philly taste.
- Serve with fries or a side salad for a complete meal.
