Char-Grilled Chicken Spiedies Sandwiches

Dinner 🍽️Lunch 🥪 American High-Protein 💪

Char-Grilled Chicken Spiedies Sandwiches bring tender, herb-and-garlic marinated chicken to life with a bright hit of vinegar, lemon, and fresh mint. Quick searing over high heat locks in juiciness, while the warm hoagie bun soaks up the tangy, peppery drippings. Serve these for casual summer dinners or game-day gatherings when you want big flavor in a hand-held bite.

  1. 1

    Combine the vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, mint, garlic, sugar, oregano, basil, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a blender. Blend until fully liquefied, about 30 seconds.

  2. 2

    Put the chicken thighs in a large resealable plastic bag, pour in the marinade, and massage to coat evenly. Press out excess air and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours, turning the bag occasionally.

  3. 3

    Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  4. 4

    Remove the chicken and thread it onto the skewers. Season with salt. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan, bring to a simmer, and cook until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes; turn and continue cooking until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the grill and let the meat rest for a few minutes.

  6. 6

    Toast the hoagie rolls and spread each with some of the reserved marinade. Set a skewer on each roll and carefully pull out the skewer, leaving the chicken in the bun.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
