Cook the marinated chicken on medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked.

Slice or shred the chicken thinly.

In a pan, add a pinch of salt to 1 cup sliced onion and stir until the onions are deeply golden brown.

Add ½ cup finely shredded cabbage, 2 Tbsp chopped green onion, ¼ cup julienned or grated carrot, and ¼ cup each of cubed yellow and red bell pepper to the pan and mix well.

Prepare a mayo sauce with ½ cup mayonnaise, 1½ Tbsp tomato sauce, 1 tsp hot sauce, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 Tbsp chopped pickle jalapeño (optional), 1 tsp pickle juice/vinegar/lime juice, and 1 tsp honey or ½ tsp sugar.

Butter the bread and place it on the pan over medium heat, applying butter on the other side as well.

Add more butter as needed and layer the prepared chicken filling and sliced cheese on the bread.
