This chopped chicken bacon ranch sub is incredibly easy to prepare and absolutely delicious. Similar to the Chopped Italian sandwich, all the ingredients—grilled chicken, bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, ranch dressing, and more—are placed on a cutting board, chopped, and mixed together. Then, the mixture is scooped into toasted sub rolls for a fantastic meal. Each bite is a perfect blend of flavors, making these subs irresistibly tasty!
INGREDIENTS
- 4 boneless, skinless grilled chicken thighs (or any cooked chicken you prefer)
- 6 pieces of crispy thick-cut bacon
- 6 slices of tomato
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose BBQ rub

INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken thighs with the all-purpose BBQ rub. Grill them over medium-high heat until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Cook the Bacon: In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Meanwhile, toast your sub rolls on the grill.
- Chop the Ingredients: On a cutting board, create a base layer of shredded lettuce. Add the grilled chicken, crispy bacon, and tomato slices. Chop everything together until well mixed.
- Season and Combine: Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Then, add the mozzarella cheese and ranch dressing. Chop and mix once more to combine everything thoroughly.
- Assemble the Subs: Scoop a generous portion of the chopped mixture onto each toasted sub roll and serve immediately. Enjoy!
