Chopped Chicken Pizza Sub

I made this chicken marinara and cheese hoagie like two days ago for lunch and promptly wanted to devour another so I thought why not show you all too. It's actually fairly healthy for my current goals, and you could easily have this stuff in your fridge ready for many lunches to come, let's make this thing.

• Romaine Lettuce, thinly sliced

Instructions

Chicken & Sauce Prep

1. To start, prep the vegetables by thinly slicing the onions, and bell pepper then set aside. Next, thinly slice the chicken breast on a cutting board. Once sliced sprinkle on some salt, msg, oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper flake. Wash your hands, then set a pan over medium-high heat and hit it with some cooking spray. Once hot, add the chicken and sear on all sides until cooked through. Set aside or store in the fridge until ready to use.
2. In the same pan, turn the heat down to medium and add the olive oil. Once hot add the sliced peppers and onions along with the black pepper and fennel seed if using. Continue to cook while stirring for 3-5 minutes. Add in the San Marzano tomatoes and cook down for about 10 minutes turn off the heat and set aside or store in the fridge until ready to use.

Hoagie Assembly

1. Set the oven to broil on high. Meanwhile, slice the hoagie roll in half and add to a pizza screen or baking sheet. Lightly toast the interior then remove.
2. Add a thin layer of just the marinara sauce to the interior of the bread before adding a large portion of the cooked chicken. Add the onions and peppers with the sauce over top before adding the shredded mozzarella cheese and parm. Slide the whole thing under the broiler and melt until bubbly.
3. Top with a bunch of sliced pepperoncini and some lettuce if you would like. (Optional) Wrap in aluminum foil and let rest for a minute or two before slicing and enjoying.
