Instructions
 

Marinating Chicken

  • Prepare marinade in a shallow dish or bowl by combining the soy sauce, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, olive oil, agave, cumin and dijon and whisking until well blended.
  • Place the chicken thighs in the marinade and turn to coat.
  • Cover the marinade and refrigerate the chicken for at least one hour, turning the meat at least once.

Cooking

  • Preheat your Traeger Flatrock griddle in two zones to medium heat.
  • Arrange the bacon slices on one zone of the hot griddle and cook until just crisp.
  • Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate and scrape off most of the bacon grease.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the section of the hot griddle where you just cooked the bacon.
  • While the chicken cooks, make the horseradish ranch sauce by mixing together the mayo, horseradish, ranch mix, buttermilk, hot sauce and parmesan. Taste and adjust seasoning to your preferences.
  • Assemble the rest of your ingredients-- slice the tomatoes, wash and cut the lettuce into big pieces, and slice the red onion on a big cutting board.
  • Slice the hoagie rolls in half, leaving the edge intact.
  • Brush the inside of the hoagie rolls with the remaining ½ teaspoon mayonnaise.
  • Flip the chicken and continue cooking until it reaches an internal temperature of 150*.
  • Add slices of the Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar cheese to the top of each chicken piece on the griddle.
  • Cover the chicken and cheese with a cooking dome or lid and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches about 160* and the cheese is fully melted.
  • Allow the chicken to rest on a loosely tented plate for about 5 minutes.
  • Toast the hoagie roll until golden brown.
  • Put 3-4 chicken and cheese pieces on top of the vegetables on your cutting board.
  • Add a few slices of bacon and a few spoonfuls of the prepared sauce.
  • Using a cleaver, chop your ingredients until even bite-sized pieces have been achieved and the ingredients are combined.
  • Scoop the chopped chicken, cheese and vegetables into the prepared hoagie rolls.
  • Serve your Cheesy Chopped Bacon Chicken Ranch sandwiches while hot and enjoy!
