Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat, let rest for a couple of minutes, then slice thinly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is grilling, wash and chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the chipotle ranch dressing thoroughly to ensure it's well combined.

  4. 4

    Toast the Rolls

    Slice the submarine rolls in half lengthwise and toast them lightly on the grill for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Build the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each toasted roll, layer 1 cup of thinly sliced grilled chicken. Place 2 slices of American cheese on top of the chicken. Add ½ cup of crispy cheddar onions evenly over the cheese, followed by ½ cup of lettuce and tomato slices.

  2. 6

    Add Dressing

    Drizzle the chipotle ranch dressing generously over the toppings.

  3. 7

    Close and Serve

    Place the top half of the roll over the dressed toppings. Press down gently to secure and cut the sandwich in half if desired. Serve immediately.
