• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup spicy pineapple peanut sauce (pre-made)

For the Jus:

• Olive oil for brushing

Optional Garnish:

• Pickled Fresnos (or other pickled peppers)

Instructions

1. Cook the Chicken:

   • In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the raw chicken strips with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until browned and cooked through.

2. Sauté the Vegetables:

   • Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet with the cooked chicken. Sauté for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

3. Add the Sauce:

   • Pour in the spicy pineapple peanut sauce, tossing to coat the chicken and vegetables evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

4. Make the Jus:

   • In a small saucepan, combine the ramen broth, Kung Wow spicy ponzu, and miso heat miso paste. Heat over medium heat until warmed through, stirring until the miso is fully dissolved. Adjust seasoning if needed.

5. Prepare the Bread:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the French bread in half lengthwise and brush the cut sides with olive oil. Toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, until golden and crispy.

6. Assemble the Sandwich:

   • Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture onto the toasted bread. Close the sandwich and slice into manageable pieces.

7. Serve:

   • Serve the sandwiches with the warm jus on the side for dipping. If desired, garnish with crushed peanuts and pickled Fresnos for an extra burst of flavor.

Tips

• Add fresh cilantro for more freshness.
• Serve with extra pickled vegetables on the side for a nice crunch!
