The Philly

Hey guys!

This week I'm going to share a great meal suggestion for using left over grilled or BBQ chicken.

You will need:
Left over chicken breast meat
Bell peppers
Onion
Mozzarella cheese
Gluten free bun (I used hot dog buns)
Oil
Salt and pepper
Mustard and mayonnaise (optional)
Side item(s) of choice

Take grilled chicken and cut into thin slices, dice up red and green bell pepper and white onion. Begin cooking veggies with a small amount of olive oil, season with salt and pepper. When veggies are mostly cooked, toss in chicken strips and heat thoroughly (being careful not to cook too long where the chicken gets dry) top with grated or thinly sliced mozzarella cheese, cover and continue heating until cheese is melted.
While the veggies are cooking, lightly toast the gluten free bread.
When ready to serve, prepare bread with desired condiments and fill with mixture of chicken, veggies and cheese.

(helpful note: after making this dish the first time, when the photo was taken, I realized that simply slicing the veggies was less time consuming during prep but created slightly increased cooking time and made the sandwich harder to eat... Round two with diced veggies worked much better)

Serving suggestion (as pictured)-
Sweet potato fries with ketchup and homemade honey-mustard dipping sauce.
