There was a little lunch place near my office that made the best "steak" subs with chicken. They could not be beat, especially on those particularly stressful work days, when you needed a treat! To my horror, the lunch shop was sold to another owner who had no idea how to make my favorite lunch treat. I had no choice but to make up the recipe myself. My family was instantly sold on the result

-
4 chicken breasts
-
1 cup cooking sherry
-
1 large onion
-
garlic salt
-
rubbed sage
-
pepper
-
salt
-
6 medium size sub rolls
-
6 slices provalone or mozzerella cheese
-
mayonase
Instructions
- Pour vegetable or olive oil into a large skillet, to coat bottom.
- Heat pan to medium high.
- Place chicken breasts in pan.
- Sprinkle with garlic salt, salt (lightly), sage, and pepper to taste.
- Saute until brown on bottom, turn.
- Sprinkle the spices as above on other side. When both sides are golden brown, add sliced onion. Make sure the onion gets brown but not cooked through(remove chicken temparily if needed).
- Reduce heat to Medium low.
- Add one cup of cooking sherry.
- Cover the pan and cook until the chicken almost falls about when you pick it up with a fork. Add more sherry if needed to keep 1 to 1/2 inch of liquid in the bottom of the pan. (Can also use chichen broth or water)
- When chicken is cooked to this point, stick a cooking fork in each piece (one at a time) use a spatula or similar straight tool so shredd the chicken into chuncks. There should be enough liquid for the chicken to remian moist, but not soupy. If there is too much liquid cook with the lid of for about 5 minutes until the liquid reduces.
- Take sub roll, that are pre-cut or cut each one to open. Place one slice of cheese on one side of the bread.
- Place in toaster oven or regular oven until the plain side is toasted and the cheese is melted.
- Spread mayonaise on toasted side of bread.
- Place chicken and onion mixture on either side of the bread (enough to make a nice serving, but not over stuffed - or it will all fall out). Enjoy!

Hands down the best Ckicken Cheese Steak you'll ever have. The chicken is so flavorful you can eat it plain. I should know since I was raised on them!
