Method
Chicken & Marinade
- 1
Slice and season chicken
Pat the chicken dry and thinly slice across the grain into 1/8–1/4 inch strips. In a bowl combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, black pepper and olive oil. Toss the sliced chicken in the seasoning mixture until evenly coated.

Cook chicken
Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil (if pan is dry). Add the seasoned chicken in a single layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in 1/2 cup BBQ sauce; cook 1–2 minutes more until sauce is hot and coats the chicken. Remove from pan and keep warm.
Veggies & Cheese
- 3
Caramelize onions and sauté peppers/mushrooms
In the same skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon butter. Add the sliced onion and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and deep golden, about 8–10 minutes. Add sliced green pepper and mushrooms (if using) and cook until vegetables are tender and edges are lightly charred, about 4–6 minutes more. Taste and adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Prepare rolls
If desired, spread mayonnaise on the cut sides of the hoagie rolls. Optionally toast the rolls: melt remaining butter in a separate skillet over medium heat and place rolls cut-side down until lightly golden, about 1–2 minutes.
