Ingredients

  • 4 sandwich rolls sturdy hoagie rolls or similar
  • 1 Pound chicken breast boneless and skinless, thinly sliced across the grain
  • 8 Ounces white mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 onion large white, thinly sliced
  • 2 bell peppers thinly sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ Teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ Teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ Teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ Teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 8 Slices provolone cheese

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning. Cook the chicken until fully cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the remaining olive oil to the pan with the sliced onions. Season the onions with a small pinch of salt, and sauté for 5 or 6 minutes, until softened and golden.
  • Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 or 3 minutes, until just starting to soften. Add the sliced bell peppers and another small pinch of salt, and cook for 2 or 3 more minutes, until the peppers are crisp-tender.
  • Add the cooked chicken back to the pan and stir the vegetables and chicken together. Move the pan off the heat while you toast the rolls.
  • Open the rolls and place each roll on a baking sheet topped with a rack. Top each roll with two slices of cheese, and place under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes until the cheese is melted.
  • Top each roll with the chicken and veggie mixture and serve immediately.

Notes

Crisp peppers: If you prefer your peppers crisp rather than soft, add them to the skillet at the same time as adding the onions.
Extra filling: Depending on the size of your rolls, you might have some of the chicken, peppers and onions mixture left over. You can enjoy this as a salad topping the following day or enjoy it in a wrap.
Cut across the grain: Cut the chicken across the middle (across the grain) rather than lengthways. It comes out more tender this way.
