Ingredients

• Chicken breast: 1 lb, thinly sliced
• Onion: 1, thinly sliced
• Red bell pepper: 1, thinly sliced
• Green bell pepper: 1, thinly sliced
• Provolone cheese: 4 slices
• Hoagie rolls: 4
• Salt and black pepper: To taste
• Olive oil: For sautéing

Preparation Method

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the thinly sliced chicken breast and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.

Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet with the chicken. Stir everything together and cook for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften and caramelize.

Once the chicken and veggies are cooked, divide the mixture into four equal portions. Place a slice of provolone cheese over each portion and cover the skillet with a lid for a couple of minutes to let the cheese melt beautifully.

While the cheese melts, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the hoagie rolls on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly crispy.

Remove the hoagie rolls from the oven and fill each one with the cheesy chicken and veggie mixture. Press the top half of the roll over the filling and serve immediately.
