Time 32m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
½ large onion, sliced
½ green bell pepper, sliced
2 fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 fresh hoagie rolls, split lengthwise
4 slices provolone cheese
2 teaspoons mayonnaise, or to taste
4 slices tomato, or to taste
4 leaves lettuce, shredded, or to taste

Steps:

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Place chicken between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a work surface. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a 1/2-inch thickness.
Cook chicken breasts on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Shred chicken; season with seasoned salt.
Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms; cook and stir until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in chicken; cook until heated through.
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler, or preheat a toaster oven.
Spread chicken mixture on the bottom half of each hoagie roll. Lay 2 pieces of provolone cheese side-by-side over chicken mixture.
Place hoagie rolls under broiler or in toaster oven and cook until provolone cheese is melted and bread is crunchy, 2 to 3 minutes.
Spread 1 teaspoon mayonnaise on top half of each hoagie roll. Top each half with 2 tomato slices and 1/2 of the lettuce. Fold halves together and roll each hoagie tightly in foil, using a knife to push any filling back inside. Set aside for flavors to blend, 1 to 2 minutes.

Tips

Choose the right cut of beef: Ribeye steak, sirloin steak, or flank steak are all great options for cheesesteaks. Look for meat that is well-marbled, as this will help to keep it juicy and flavorful.
Slice the meat thinly: This will help it to cook evenly and quickly. Aim for slices that are about 1/4-inch thick.
Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in a cheesesteak, so don't skimp on it. Use a cheese that melts well and has a lot of flavor, such as provolone, American, or cheddar.
Cook the meat and onions in a single layer: This will help to prevent them from steaming and becoming soggy. If you have to cook them in batches, be sure to drain the excess grease between batches.
Don't overcook the meat: Cheesesteaks are best when the meat is cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooked meat will be tough and chewy.
Serve the cheesesteaks immediately: This is when they are at their best. If you need to keep them warm for a while, wrap them in foil or place them in a low-temperature oven.
