Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound of chicken breast
  • 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter (and extra to spread onto the rolls)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder (and extra for the bread)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 yellow or white onion (in slices)
  • 1/2 roughly chopped pickled jalapenos or banana peppers
  • 3/8 cup of Frank's Red Hot Sauce (or hot sauce of your choice)
  • 4 slices of Provolone cheese
  • ranch dressing (or blue cheese)

Instructions

  • Prepare
    Gather all of the ingredients you need for this recipe. Before you begin making your cheesesteak, place your chicken breast into the freezer for around 30 minutes. Near the end of that 30-minute time period, preheat your oven to 400F. Also, use some of your extra butter to spread the inside of your rolls and sprinkle a small amount of garlic powder onto each one. Place each side of the rolls in a single layer on a baking sheet.

  • Prepare the chicken
    Take the chicken from the freezer, and using a knife, slice the chicken as thin as possible, and chop into small pieces. Place the pieces into a bowl and add your salt and garlic powder. Mix well so the chicken pieces are evenly coated with seasoning.

  • Prepare the veggies
    Add two tablespoons of butter to a skillet/pan and heat over a medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted, add your onions and jalapenos/banana peppers and sauté. This should take around 8 minutes. The veggies should be soft. Remove from heat and place veggies into a bowl.

  • Cook the chicken
    Place your rolls into the center of your preheated oven for approx. five minutes, or until warm throughout. Now add your chicken pieces into the veggie pan and cook for around 5 minutes, stirring often. Once the chicken has cooked through and is brown in color, reduce heat to medium-low. Add a touch more butter, and once melted, add your hot sauce. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce.

  • Assemble
    Place the cheese on top of the chicken and remove from heat once melted. Remove rolls from oven and place several spoonfuls of the chicken mixture onto them. Then add your onion mixture on top. Repeat until all sandwiches are complete. Serve with ranch dressing or dressing of your choice. Enjoy!
