Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb thin-sliced chicken breast or chicken tenders, cut into bite-sized strips Or regular chicken breasts, butterflied and cut into bite-sized strips.
  • 2 garlic cloves grated or minced
  • 2 TBSP olive oil
  • 1.5 tsp sea salt
  • A few cranks cracked black pepper
  • 2 bell peppers deseeded and cut into strips. Use green and red for color.
  • 1 large red onion cut into bite-sized wedges
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms Use baby bella or cremini.
  • 4-6 slices provolone cheese
For Serving
  • 4-6 Fresh hoagie buns for serving

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350º F.
  2. Place the cut up chicken in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the grated garlic, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Transfer the chicken to one side of a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Combine the vegetables in the same mixing bowl. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then place them on the other side of the baking sheet.
  4. Place the baking sheet in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160º F.
  5. Remove the pan from the oven. Lay 4-6 slices of provolone over all of the chicken. Set the broiler to high and return the baking sheet to the oven for one to two minutes, just until the cheese melts and bubbles. Watch it closely to prevent burning.
  6. Remove from the oven and serve on toasted hoagies or in a wrap.

Notes

You can toast your hoagie buns by buttering the inside thoroughly. Place them open-side down onto a hot cast iron skillet or griddle until lightly toasted and golden brown. You can do this while the chicken and vegetables cook in the oven.
