  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 2 sandwiches 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 tablespoons avocado oil (divided; can substitute with vegetable, canola, or olive oil)

8 ounces boneless chicken breasts or thighs, trimmed of excess fat

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1/2 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced

1/2 large onion (white or yellow), thinly sliced

4 slices provolone cheese (or alternatives like Cheez Whiz, white American, or Swiss cheese)

2 rolls such as sausage rolls, hoagie buns, or similar sturdy sandwich rolls

Instructions

1-First, season the chicken with salt, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, then let it rest at room temperature for a few minutes to enhance the flavors.

2-Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until it’s fully cooked through, then transfer it to a bowl and cover with foil to keep it warm.

3-Add the remaining oil to the skillet. Toss in the sliced peppers, onions, remaining garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the veggies are slightly charred and tender.

4-Thinly slice the cooked chicken and add it back to the pan with the vegetables and any juices. Reduce the heat to medium-low, stir everything together, and let the flavors blend for a minute or two.

5-Divide the mixture into two piles in the skillet. Top each pile with 2 slices of provolone cheese and let it melt, covering the skillet to trap the heat if needed.

6-Warm the rolls in the microwave for about 20 seconds to make them soft and ready for filling.

7-Scoop the cheesy chicken and vegetable mixture into each warmed roll and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
