Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Marinade

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce (plus extra for drizzling)

Vegetables

  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

Other

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing (optional, for drizzling)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the thinly sliced chicken with the Buffalo sauce, coating the chicken well. Let it marinate while you prepare the other ingredients, or for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Cook the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and green bell pepper. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the Chicken: In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the marinated chicken slices to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and slightly crispy around the edges. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Assemble the Cheesesteaks: Preheat the oven to broil. Slice the hoagie rolls open and place them on a baking sheet. Divide the cooked chicken evenly among the rolls. Top with the cooked onions and peppers.
  5. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken and vegetables. Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Serve: Drizzle extra Buffalo sauce and ranch or blue cheese dressing over the top if desired. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve the Buffalo chicken cheesesteaks hot.

Notes

  • For extra heat, add more Buffalo sauce or serve with spicy pickles.
  • Substitute mozzarella with provolone or cheddar cheese for different flavor profiles.
  • Use gluten-free rolls to make this recipe gluten-free.
  • Leftover chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Adjust the amount of ranch or blue cheese dressing according to preference or omit for a dairy-free option.
