Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 to 10 ounces beer
1 teaspoon Chicken Seasoning Blend, recipe follows
1 teaspoon chipotle steak seasoning
2 cups shredded melting cheese blend
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 white onion, chopped
1 1/2 pounds shaved chicken breast
1 to 2 teaspoons Chicken Seasoning Blend
1/4 cup chicken stock, beer or water
4 hoagie rolls, split
Mayonnaise
Cherry pepper relish
2 teaspoons chicken seasoning
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

For the cheese sauce: Combine 8 ounces of the beer, the Chicken Seasoning Blend and the chipotle steak seasoning in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Gradually whisk in the cheese; cook just until the cheese is melted, adding more beer if the sauce is too thick. Keep warm.
For the chicken: Heat a cast-iron griddle over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the onions and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken, drizzle with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the Chicken Seasoning Blend. Cook until the chicken is browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Pour the chicken stock over the chicken and cook for another minute.
To build sandwiches: Coat the bottom half of each hoagie roll with mayonnaise. Divide the chicken and onions among the rolls. Drizzle with cheese sauce and top with a bit of relish.
In a small bowl combine the chicken seasoning, kosher salt, garlic salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
