Can I make this ahead of time?

Absolutely! Prep the chicken and veggies in advance, then reheat and assemble when you're ready. Just broil right before serving for that fresh, melty finish.

Is there a low-carb option?

Yes! You can serve the chicken, veggies, and cheese over a bed of romaine or inside lettuce wraps for a lighter take.

What’s the best cheese for Buffalo Chicken Cheesesteak?

Mozzarella is classic for meltiness, but provolone, cheddar, or even a spicy pepper jack will work beautifully too.

Can I use rotisserie chicken instead?

Totally! Just shred it and toss it in warmed Buffalo sauce before adding it to your rolls.

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a medium bowl, toss thinly sliced chicken with Buffalo sauce. Let sit for at least 10 minutes.
Cook the Veggies: In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and peppers, sauté for 4–5 minutes until soft. Remove from skillet.
Cook the Chicken: Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the same skillet. Cook marinated chicken for 5–7 minutes, until fully cooked and slightly crisp on the edges. Season with salt and pepper.
Assemble the Sandwiches: Preheat broiler. Slice hoagie rolls and place on a baking sheet. Fill each with cooked chicken, then top with sautéed veggies.
Add Cheese & Broil: Sprinkle mozzarella over each sandwich. Broil for 1–2 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Finish & Serve: Drizzle with extra Buffalo sauce and dressing if desired. Garnish with parsley and serve hot!

Notes

Swap mozzarella for provolone or pepper jack for a cheesier kick.
Use rotisserie chicken to save time—just mix with warm Buffalo sauce.
Serve with celery sticks or a side salad to balance the heat.
Make it low-carb by serving in lettuce wraps instead of rolls!
