If you love the classic beef Philly cheesesteak, you’re going to enjoy our twist with chicken! This recipe is perfect for those who prefer a lighter protein option. Don’t worry – we’ve kept all the delicious toppings that make the Philly cheesesteak so irresistible.

Ingredients for Chicken Philly Cheesesteak

• Chicken breast: Instead of beef, we use boneless, skinless chicken breast for a healthier alternative. You can also try using boneless, skinless chicken thighs for even juicier and softer meat.
• Green bell pepper: This is a must-have veggie in both versions of the Philly cheesesteak. If you prefer a slightly sweeter flavor, you can substitute green bell peppers with yellow or red bell peppers.
• Onion: Caramelized onions add an incredible depth of flavor to your sandwich. You can use yellow, sweet, or white onions – they all work wonderfully.
• Mushroom: Softened and cooked mushrooms provide a mild sweetness and umami taste to your Philly sandwich. Trust us, it’s a game-changer!
• Cheese: The traditional Philly cheesesteak cheese of choice is provolone for its neutral flavor and easy melting. However, you can also try sliced white American cheese or Swiss cheese. If you’re feeling adventurous, some Philadelphia food trucks even use Cheez Whiz!
• Hoagie roll: A classic Philly cheesesteak is made with a hoagie roll, but you can use any white roll or sandwich bread that you have on hand. The choice is yours!
• Seasoning: Don’t forget to season your chicken with a dash of salt and pepper while cooking. You can also add more seasoning to your sandwich for an extra boost of flavor.

With these ingredients, you’ll have all the makings for a mouthwatering chicken Philly cheesesteak. Feel free to customize your sandwich with any additional toppings you enjoy. Let’s get cooking!
