- 2–3 lettuce leaves
- 2 slices of tomato
- 2 tablespoons thinly sliced red onions

Instructions
- Prepare the Bread: Slice the sub roll in half lengthwise. Place both halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.
- Layer the Ingredients: On the bottom half, layer the grilled chicken, crispy bacon, and cheese slices.
- Toast the Sandwich: Place the sandwich under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the top half is lightly toasted.
- Add Fresh Toppings: Remove from the oven and layer lettuce, tomato slices, red onions, and pickles on top. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Drizzle Ranch Dressing: Evenly spread the ranch dressing over the fresh toppings.
- Assemble and Serve: Place the top half of the roll over the sandwich, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra flavor, use smoked or peppered bacon.
- Try different cheeses like cheddar, provolone, or mozzarella for a unique taste.
- Add jalapeños or sriracha ranch for a spicy twist.
- If making ahead, store the ingredients separately and assemble just before serving.
- Swap out the sub roll for a whole wheat bun or lettuce wrap for a healthier version.
