Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 piece green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 piece red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 piece yellow onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 slices provolone cheese slices
- 4 pieces hoagie rolls
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
Instructions
Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips across the grain.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the sliced green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and yellow onion to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine with the vegetables.
Lay the provolone cheese slices over the chicken and vegetables, allowing them to melt. Cover the skillet with a lid to speed up the melting process if needed.
While the cheese is melting, preheat your broiler on high.
Butter the insides of the hoagie rolls and place them on a baking sheet, buttered side up.
Toast the hoagie rolls under the broiler until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Once the rolls are toasted, remove them from the oven.
Fill each hoagie roll with the chicken, vegetable, and melted cheese mixture.
Serve the chicken cheesesteaks hot and enjoy your delicious meal.
