To make a perfect copy of the Chicken Teriyaki Sub, you’ll need:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken

To achieve the authentic texture and flavor of Subway’s Chicken Teriyaki Sub, focus on marinating the chicken properly. Start by mixing 1/2 cup of teriyaki sauce, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of honey in a bowl. Add the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor absorption. Cook the chicken on a grill pan or in an oven at 375°F for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through. This ensures the chicken is thoroughly cooked and infused with the sweet and savory flavors of your homemade teriyaki sauce.

Assembling the sub is just as important as cooking it. Start with a fresh, crusty hoagie roll and slice it open without cutting all the way through to keep it intact. Layer your chicken slices first, followed by a generous helping of shredded carrots and bell peppers for added crunch. Add sliced red onions and pickles for a tangy kick, then sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese. For an extra burst of flavor, drizzle a bit more teriyaki sauce over the top before broiling until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Slice diagonally and serve immediately for a Subway-style Chicken

Garnishing and Serving

To enhance the visual appeal of your homemade sub, add some fresh herbs like cilantro or green onions. A sprinkle of sesame seeds adds a crunchy texture and nutty flavor, while a dash of black pepper can bring out the savory notes. Serve your sub with a side of sweet chili sauce for dipping, which complements the teriyaki flavor beautifully. This finishing touch not only adds a pop of color but also provides an extra layer of deliciousness.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Leftover sub slices can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. When reheating, wrap the slices tightly in aluminum foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes. Alternatively, you can microwave the slices in short bursts of 30 seconds until they are heated through. This ensures that your sub remains moist and flavorful even after storage.

This homemade Chicken Teriyaki Sub is a perfect blend of savory chicken, crunchy vegetables, and tangy sauces, making it a delightful twist on the classic sandwich.

• Subway Italian Herb and Cheese Bread — bake the rolls from scratch. Fresh herb crust and a soft interior make a bigger difference than you’d expect under the teriyaki glaze.
• Subway Italian BMT — the cold cut option for a quicker build. Genoa salami, pepperoni, and ham with oil and vinegar.
• Subway Chipotle Southwest Sauce — swap the sweet onion sauce for this smoky, creamy alternative. The chipotle-teriyaki combination works better than it sounds.
