An easy Chicken Philly Sandwich recipe with bell peppers, onions, mushrooms tender chicken, and melted American cheese! 

This recipe is the chicken version of the a philly cheesesteak, and in my opinion a better one! You would be shocked to know to that I never had a cheesesteak until my husband convinced me to try it and honestly I don’t know why I waited so long!

After being convinced, I decided to give it a go and make some at home! I will say the first time I made it I thinly sliced the chicken and it was something I wouldn’t recommend. For this recipe definitely use ground chicken. I simply make ground chicken at home by adding some chicken breast to a food processor and pulsing it a couple of times, this is the best way to achieve ground chicken.

For many of you who are wondering if this recipe can be made into a vegetarian dish, it can be! You can use tofu and crumble it until you have a similar texture like ground chicken. Make sure to fully drain and dry out the tofu before cooking.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 4 sub rolls
  • 12 slices of provolone or American cheese
  • 1 medium onion – sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper – sliced
  • 610 mushrooms – sliced
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix all the dry spices together.

  4. Add the veggies to the chicken and divide the chicken and vegetable mixture into 4 separate piles in the pan (preferably in a shape resembling the bread you are using.) Cover each pile with cheese, and let the cheese melt over the tops of the piles.
