Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, thinly sliced

1 bell pepper (red or green), thinly sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (a blend of oregano, basil, and thyme)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup provolone cheese, shredded (or your favorite cheese)

1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional for added flavor)

4 whole wheat or regular hoagie rolls, split (optional for serving)

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken to the skillet, seasoning it with salt, pepper, and dried Italian herbs. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Once done, transfer the chicken to a plate and keep it warm.

    Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in the sliced onions, bell peppers, and optional mushrooms. Cook these vegetables, stirring occasionally, for about 5-6 minutes or until they are soft and slightly caramelized. Then, add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute, until the garlic becomes fragrant.

      Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir everything together to combine. Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.

        Add Cheese: Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and evenly sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and gooey.

          Serve: For a heartier meal, serve the cheesy chicken mix inside the split hoagie rolls. Alternatively, spoon the mixture into bowls or on plates. If desired, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
