Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 slices provolone cheese slices
- 4 rolls hoagie rolls
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise (optional)
Instructions
Thinly slice the chicken breasts into strips about 1/4 inch thick.
Slice the green and red bell peppers and the yellow onion into thin strips.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced bell peppers and onions to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until they begin to soften.
Push the peppers and onions to one side of the skillet and add the chicken strips to the other side.
Sprinkle the chicken with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Cook the chicken for about 6-8 minutes until browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally.
Mix the peppers and onions with the chicken and toss together to combine well.
Divide the chicken mixture into four equal portions in the skillet and place a slice and a half of provolone cheese on top of each portion.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 2 minutes.
Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise without cutting all the way through to create a pocket.
If using, spread mayonnaise on the inside of each roll.
Fill each hoagie roll with a portion of the cheesy chicken and pepper mixture.
Serve the Chicken Philly Cheesesteaks immediately while hot and enjoy!
