# Ingredient List:

→ Main

01 - 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
02 - 4 hoagie rolls
03 - 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus additional for bread
04 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, plus extra for bread
05 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
06 - 1/2 yellow onion, sliced (white onion may be substituted)
07 - 1/2 cup sliced pickled jalapeños, roughly chopped (optional, or substitute banana peppers)
08 - 3/8 cup Frank's RedHot sauce
09 - 4 slices provolone cheese
10 - Ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing, for serving

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Place the chicken breast in the freezer for 30 to 45 minutes to firm up for easier slicing.
02 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread butter on the interior sides of the hoagie rolls and sprinkle lightly with garlic powder. Arrange rolls cut-side up on a baking sheet.
03 - Remove chicken from the freezer and slice as thin as possible, then chop into small pieces, approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Toss chicken pieces with remaining garlic powder and kosher salt.
04 - Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter. When melted, add sliced onions and chopped jalapeños. Sauté 7 to 8 minutes until onions are tender and translucent. Transfer vegetables to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
05 - Bake prepared hoagie rolls in the oven for 5 minutes until lightly crisped.
06 - Increase skillet heat to high. Add seasoned chicken to the hot pan and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes or until browned and fully cooked.
07 - Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet and allow to melt. Pour in Frank's RedHot sauce and stir to coat chicken evenly.
08 - Arrange provolone cheese slices evenly over the chicken. Cover the skillet briefly until cheese is fully melted.
09 - Transfer cheesy chicken mixture onto toasted hoagie rolls. Top with sautéed onions and jalapeños. Serve warm with your choice of ranch or blue cheese dressing.

# Supplementary Details:

01 - Freezing the chicken briefly before slicing helps achieve thin, even cuts for ideal texture.
