Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. 

  • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve, core, and thinly slice green peppers into strips. Halve baguettes lengthwise. 

Roast Potatoes
2
  • Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

Start Filling
3
  • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add green peppers; cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 5 minutes.

  • Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.

  • Add chicken to pan; season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until green peppers are tender and chicken is browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes more. (Cook in batches for 8 servings, transferring cooked chicken and green peppers to a large bowl as you go.)

Finish Filling
4
  • Stir three BBQ sauce packets (six packets for 8 servings) into pan with chicken mixture; cook until warmed through, 30-60 seconds. (For 8, add all the chicken and green peppers back to pan before adding BBQ sauce.)

  • Remove from heat; evenly sprinkle with cheddar. Cover pan until cheese melts.

Toast Bread
5
  • Meanwhile, arrange baguettes, cut sides up, on a second foil-lined baking sheet. Divide mozzarella between bottom baguette halves. Bake on middle rack until bread is golden brown and cheese melts, 4-6 minutes. 

Finish & Serve
6
  • Once bread is toasted, divide filling between cheesy bottom baguette halves. Close with top halves to form subs

  • Divide subs and potato wedges between plates. Serve with ranch dressing and remaining BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
