Directions
In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder and cayenne and sprinkle chicken pieces with the mixture. In a large skillet, stir-fry seasoned chicken in 2 Tbsp. olive oil about 4-5 minutes or until no longer pink. Drain and remove from pan. Add bratwurst or smoked sausage to skillet and brown, about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from pan. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. olive oil to skillet and saute onion, red bell pepper and jalapenos until tender and onions begin to become translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add chicken and bratwurst back to the skillet. Stir in chili sauce, vinegar, water, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and relish. Cover and simmer 10-12 minutes. Pile mixture onto hoagie hard rolls. Top each sandwich with 2 Tbsp. shredded cheese. Makes 8 servings.
