Ingredients
Scale
- 14 oz chicken tenders
- 2 Tbsp vegetable oil (for cooking)
- Salt and pepper
- 2 large shallots (sliced)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
- 2 French bread subs
- About 1/2 cup white BBQ sauce (more for dipping or drizzling)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tbsp white vinegar
- 1/2 Tbsp fresh cracked white pepper
- 1/2 Tbsp Creole mustard
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 2 large garlic cloves (pressed)
- 2 tsp horseradish
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp paprika
Instructions
- Whisk together the mayonnaise, white vinegar, white pepper, Creole mustard, salt, sugar, pressed garlic, horseradish, lemon juice, and paprika in a bowl for the white BBQ sauce. Refrigerate until ready.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken tenders with salt and pepper and cook for 6-8 minutes per side until fully cooked. Add sliced shallots halfway through.
- Let the cooked chicken cool slightly before chopping into bite-sized pieces. Combine with shallots, shredded cheese, and refrigerated white BBQ sauce.
- Slice French bread subs down the middle without cutting through completely. Fill each sub generously with the chicken mixture and top with extra cheese.
- Broil in the oven until cheese is melted and bubbly (about 3-5 minutes). Serve immediately with additional white BBQ sauce if desired.
