Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken tenders (grilled, fried, or baked)
- 4 hoagie rolls or soft sandwich buns
- 1/2 cup tangy South Carolina mustard-based BBQ sauce
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup chopped pickles (bread and butter or dill)
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup shredded lettuce or coleslaw
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: Hot sauce for an extra kick
Instructions
- Season raw chicken tenders with salt and pepper. Grill, bake, or fry until golden and fully cooked (about 5–7 minutes per side). Set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Lightly toast hoagie rolls in a skillet or oven for 2–3 minutes until the edges are crispy.
- Spread honey mustard sauce on the bottom bun. Place a chicken tender on top and drizzle with South Carolina mustard BBQ sauce.
- Layer with lettuce or coleslaw, red onions, and chopped pickles. Add hot sauce if desired.
- Top with the other half of the roll and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- You can use rotisserie or frozen tenders for a shortcut.
- Bread and butter pickles add sweetness; dill offers a classic tang.
- Swap coleslaw for lettuce to add extra crunch and flavor.
