    Chicken Cheesesteak Recipe

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    Say hello to an incredibly easy, flavorful, and healthy weeknight dinner. This Chicken Cheesesteak Recipe is a low carb skillet meal inspired by a Philly Cheesesteak.

    Rather than steak, it uses marinated chicken tenderloins and it is all served in a bowl rather than a hoagie roll.

    It can easily be served on a toasted roll if someone in your household is not eating low carb.

    High protein and low carb

    Veggie loaded

    Easy skillet meal

    What do you need :

    • Chicken Tenderloins
    • Worchester sauce
    • Coconut aminos (soy sauce or tamari)
    • Apple Cider Vinegar
    • Red and Green Bell Pepper
    • Sliced Bella Mushrooms
    • White Onion
    • Red pepper flakes
    • Thinly sliced provolone
    • grated parmesan cheese

    Substitutions:

    If you want to use sliced steak rather than chicken, feel free to substitute!

    Add even more vegetables with the addition of cauliflower rice.

    To make dairy free use nutritional yeast rather than parmesan and use dairy free provolone.

    How to make:

    marinate chicken for cheese steak

    saute mushrooms and bell peppers

    In a large oven safe pan...

    1. Marinate chicken in sauce for at least 30 minutes.
    2. Slice bell peppers, mushrooms, and onion and sauté for about 5 minutes in oil or until translucent then set aside.
    3. Diced marinated chicken and cook on medium heat for about 8-10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
    4. Return chicken to pan and stir red pepper flakes and ⅓ cup grated parmesan cheese.
    5. Cover with about 7 slices of thinly sliced provolone and broil on low for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly crisp.

    Serve with:

    • You could serve this as is in a bowl
    • With quinoa, rice, or cauliflower rice
    • Or serve in a roll or pita
    • Add ketchup, barbeque sauce, or mayo based on your preference

    Storing:

    This lasts about 4 days in the fridge! I heat it up in the microwave and it tastes great.
