Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, sliced onion
- 2 medium, sliced (one red, one green) bell peppers
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 120 grams, sliced Provolone cheese
- 4 small whole wheat hoagie rolls
Instructions
Start by slicing the chicken breast into thin strips.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes, until they are soft and begin to caramelize.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced chicken strips to the skillet.
Season the chicken and vegetables with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Cook the chicken for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
Add Worcestershire sauce to the skillet and stir well to evenly coat the chicken and vegetables.
Divide the chicken mixture into four sections in the skillet. Top each section with slices of Provolone cheese.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt over the chicken, about 2 minutes.
While the cheese is melting, lightly toast the whole wheat hoagie rolls if desired.
Once the cheese is melted, fill each hoagie roll with a portion of the chicken cheesesteak mixture.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and high-protein chicken cheesesteak!
