Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slices of provolone cheese
- 4 hoagie rolls
These are the fresh ingredients you’ll need to create your delicious Chicken Philly Cheese Steaks.
Directions
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the chicken is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until they are soft, about 4-5 minutes.
- Once the vegetables have cooked down, return the chicken to the skillet and mix everything together thoroughly.
- Divide the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly among the hoagie rolls, allowing for generous portions.
- Top each sandwich with 2 slices of provolone cheese, ensuring every bite has that cheesy goodness.
- Place the sandwiches under a broiler for a few minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly—keep an eye on it to avoid burning!
- Serve hot, and enjoy every delicious mouthful!
Tips & Variations
- Ingredient Substitutions: Swap the chicken for sliced steak or even turkey for a variation on the classic taste. For a vegetarian option, use mushrooms or tempeh.
- Optional Variations: Add sliced jalapeños for a spicy kick, or throw in some sautéed mushrooms for extra flavor and texture.
- Storage or Reheating Tips: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, place in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through; this helps maintain the texture of the bread and keeps the cheese melty.
