Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill or a non-stick pan over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until it reaches 165°F. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes before chopping.
  2. While chicken rests, place a skillet over medium heat and cook bacon strips for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain excess grease, then chop.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped chicken, crumbled bacon, and ranch dressing. Mix together until evenly coated.
  4. Slice open sub rolls lengthwise and lightly toast the insides for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Fill each toasted sub roll with the chicken and bacon mixture, and layer with fresh lettuce and sliced tomatoes as desired.
  6. Serve the assembled subs immediately while warm for the best experience.
