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.

SUNNY'S QUICK CHICKEN CHEESESTEAK
Steps:
- For the cheese sauce: Combine 8 ounces of the beer, the Chicken Seasoning Blend and the chipotle steak seasoning in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Gradually whisk in the cheese; cook just until the cheese is melted, adding more beer if the sauce is too thick. Keep warm.
- For the chicken: Heat a cast-iron griddle over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the onions and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken, drizzle with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the Chicken Seasoning Blend. Cook until the chicken is browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Pour the chicken stock over the chicken and cook for another minute.
- To build sandwiches: Coat the bottom half of each hoagie roll with mayonnaise. Divide the chicken and onions among the rolls. Drizzle with cheese sauce and top with a bit of relish.
- In a small bowl combine the chicken seasoning, kosher salt, garlic salt and a few grinds of black pepper.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Toss the chicken, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl; spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast until just cooked through, 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board; discard the foil and reserve the baking sheet. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and cook, 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the pickled peppers. Brush the insides of the rolls with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; arrange cut-side up on the baking sheet and toast in the oven, about 2 minutes. Thinly slice the chicken and divide among the rolls. Top evenly with the onion mixture and the cheese. Return to the oven to melt the cheese, about 2 minutes. Top with hot sauce and/or ketchup and serve with carrot and celery sticks.
Tips:
- For the Best Flavor: Use high-quality ingredients, such as freshly ground beef and aged cheddar cheese. You can also add your favorite seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, to taste.
- Don't Overcook the Steak: Cook the steak over medium-high heat until it is cooked to your desired doneness. Overcooking the steak will make it tough and chewy.
- Use a Good Melting Cheese: Use a cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or provolone. This will help to create a gooey, flavorful cheese sauce.
- Toast the Bread: Toasting the bread will help to keep it from getting soggy from the cheese sauce.
- Serve Immediately: Cheesesteaks are best served immediately after they are made. This will ensure that the cheese sauce is hot and gooey and the bread is still crispy.
Conclusion:
Cheesesteaks are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a cheesesteak that is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this cheesesteak recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
