How to make Ultimate Chicken Philly Cheese Steaks with tender chicken, sautéed peppers & onions, and melted provolone that your family will absolutely love.
Ingredients
- Main Components:
- 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4–6 high-quality hoagie rolls
- 12 slices provolone cheese
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 medium bell peppers (green or red)
- Flavor Builders & Fats:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- Seasonings:
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Prep Ingredients: Slice chicken into thin strips, then season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Thinly slice the onion and bell peppers. This prep ensures everything cooks evenly for your Chicken Philly Cheese Steaks.
- Sauté Veggies: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and bell peppers, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp and begin to caramelize. Remove and set aside.
- Cook Chicken: Add chicken to the same skillet, cooking for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Stir in minced garlic for the last minute. Pour in chicken broth to deglaze, scraping up any delicious bits.
- Toast Rolls: Brush hoagie rolls with melted butter and toast lightly in a separate pan or oven until golden. Spread with mayonnaise for extra flavor. This creates a perfect base for your Cheesy Chicken Philly Steaks.
- Melt Cheese: Return vegetables to the chicken skillet, mixing well. Divide the mixture into sections and top each with 2-3 slices of provolone. Cover the skillet for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is beautifully melted and gooey.
- Assemble Steaks: Carefully scoop the cheesy chicken and vegetable mixture into the prepared toasted hoagie rolls. Ensure an even distribution of deliciousness in each Chicken Philly Cheese Steak.
- Serve Warm: Serve your Ultimate Cheesy Chicken Philly Cheese Steaks immediately while hot. Pair with your favorite side dish for a complete and satisfying meal that everyone will crave!
Notes
Avoid dry chicken by cooking just until browned and cooked through, then promptly remove from heat.
Store cooked chicken and vegetable mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
Chicken thighs can be substituted for breasts for a juicier, richer flavor; slice thinly and cook through.
Serve these Cheesy Chicken Philly Steaks immediately while piping hot for the best flavor and texture.
Prep chicken, onions, and peppers 1-2 days ahead, storing separately; assemble with fresh rolls before serving.
