Time 45m

Yield One 36-inch sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Salt and ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 cup your favorite wing sauce, such as Frank's RedHot
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, optional
2 medium carrots, diced
2 celery ribs, diced
2 tomatoes, seeded and diced
One 36-inch fresh French loaf
1 cup blue cheese crumbles
Homemade Ranch Dressing, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon fresh dill, minced
1/2 teaspoon honey or agave syrup
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with some salt and pepper, the brown sugar, paprika and cayenne. Sear both sides of the chicken in the skillet until golden, about 4 minutes. Add in the wing sauce, bring to a simmer and finish off in the oven until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 minutes. Let cool, and then pull the meat with your hands or two forks. Adjust the seasoning if necessary, add the butter if using, and place back in the oven at BROIL until crusty and caramelized on top, about 4 minutes.
  • In a bowl, the combine carrots, celery and tomatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Mix until combined.
  • Cut the French loaf horizontally. Place an even layer of blue cheese crumbles on the bottom, then the chicken and then the veggies. Serve with a side of Homemade Ranch Dressing.
  • Mix the mayonnaise, buttermilk, garlic, dill, honey, salt, mustard and pepper in a bowl. Store in an airtight container.

This sub was a complete disaster! The chicken was overcooked and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my liking. I would recommend using a simpler recipe if you're short on time.

The sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. I would recommend using a different sauce or adjusting the amount of vinegar.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time.

This sub was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.
