Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
Vegetables and Seasonings:
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Bread and Dairy:
- 4 hoagie rolls, sliced open
- 8 slices provolone or American cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Blend 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Thoroughly coat the 1 lb chicken breast slices with the seasoning blend.
- Warm 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat at 375°F. Sear the seasoned chicken until completely opaque, approximately 5-7 minutes. Transfer cooked chicken to a separate plate.
- Without cleaning the skillet, drop in the thinly sliced onion and bell peppers. Saute the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they soften and develop slight caramelization.
- Spread ½ tablespoon softened butter on the exterior of each hoagie roll. Layer each roll with 2 ounces cooked chicken, sauteed vegetables, and 2 slices of provolone cheese.
- Position sandwiches in a preheated panini press or skillet at 350°F. Apply gentle pressure and grill for 3-4 minutes per side until the bread turns golden brown and cheese melts completely.
- Slice each sandwich diagonally and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced chicken breast for the most tender and quick-cooking result.
- Choose white American or provolone cheese for classic Philly cheesesteak flavor and best melting properties.
- Slice vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent texture in your sandwich.
- Let the chicken rest briefly after cooking to help retain its moisture and prevent the sandwich from becoming soggy.
