How to make chicken cheesesteak?
To make chicken cheesesteak, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, sliced thinly
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 4 to 6 slices of provolone cheese
- 4 to 6 hoagie rolls
For the marinade:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
2. Add the sliced chicken breast to the marinade and mix well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to an hour, or refrigerate overnight for a more intense flavor.
3. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is browned and cooked through, roughly 5-7 minutes.
4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet and sauté until they are softened and slightly caramelized, around 5 minutes.
5. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the onions and peppers, stirring to combine everything.
6. Preheat the oven broiler. Split the hoagie rolls lengthwise and lay them on a baking sheet. Place a slice of provolone cheese on one side of each roll.
7. Spoon the chicken mixture onto the rolls, on top of the cheese. Cover the mixture with another slice of provolone cheese.
8. Place the baking sheet with the prepared chicken cheesesteak sandwiches under the oven broiler. Broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the rolls are toasted to your liking - this will take about 2-3 minutes.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade chicken cheesesteak!
Here is a step-by-step recipe for making chicken cheesesteak:
Step 1: Marinate the chicken
- Start by marinating the chicken breasts. You can use a marinade of your choice, such as a combination of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
- Place the chicken breasts in a zip-top bag with the marinade and allow them to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, but preferably for a few hours or overnight.
Step 2: Cook the chicken
- Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add a little oil to prevent sticking.
- Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
- Place the chicken breasts onto the hot skillet or grill pan and cook them for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and are no longer pink in the center.
- Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board and allow it to rest for a few minutes.
Step 3: Sauté the onions and peppers
- In the same skillet or a separate skillet, heat some oil over medium heat.
- Add thinly sliced onions and peppers (such as green bell peppers) to the skillet and sauté them until they soften and start to caramelize, stirring occasionally. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.
Step 4: Slice the chicken and assemble the cheesesteak
- Slice the cooked chicken breasts into thin, strips or slices.
- Take a sub roll or baguette and slice it open lengthwise, but not all the way through.
- Place the sliced chicken onto the bottom half of the roll.
- Top the chicken with the sautéed onions and peppers.
- Add desired amount of sliced or shredded cheese (traditionally Provolone or American cheese) on top of the onions and peppers.
- Close the sandwich with the top half of the bread.
Step 5: Toast the cheesesteak (optional)
- If desired, you can toast the assembled cheesesteak in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is slightly crispy.
Step 6: Serve and enjoy
- Cut the cheesesteak into smaller portions, if desired, and serve it hot.
- You can also serve it with any condiments or toppings of your choice, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or hot sauce.
- Enjoy your homemade chicken cheesesteak!
To make chicken cheesesteak, you will need the following ingredients:
- Chicken breast (sliced thinly)
- Onion (sliced)
- Green bell pepper (sliced)
- Provolone cheese (sliced)
- Hoagie rolls
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Here's a step-by-step guide to making chicken cheesesteak:
1. Start by preheating a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
2. While the pan is heating, season the thinly sliced chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Add a drizzle of olive oil to the hot pan and then add the chicken slices. Cook the chicken until it is browned and cooked through, which usually takes about 3-4 minutes per side.
4. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and set it aside.
5. In the same pan, add another drizzle of olive oil and then add the sliced onions and green bell peppers. Cook them until they are softened and slightly caramelized, which takes about 5-6 minutes.
6. While the onions and peppers are cooking, you can slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise, but be careful not to cut them all the way through.
7. Once the onions and peppers are cooked, remove them from the pan and set them aside.
8. Now it's time to assemble the chicken cheesesteaks. Place the cooked chicken slices on the sliced hoagie rolls and top them with the cooked onions and peppers.
9. Next, place the sliced provolone cheese on top of the chicken, onions, and peppers.
10. Finally, you can either wrap the sandwiches in aluminum foil and heat them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes until the cheese melts, or you can return them to the pan over low heat and cover them to allow the cheese to melt.
11. Once the cheese has melted, the chicken cheesesteaks are ready to be served!
Now you have a delicious homemade chicken cheesesteak. Enjoy!
