Ingredients:

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1/2 cup sweet onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 sandwich rolls or hoagie buns
• Lettuce leaves, for serving
• Tomato slices, for serving

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, cornstarch, and water to create a marinade.
2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. While the chicken is marinating, prepare the sweet onion sauce by mixing the chopped sweet onion, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and sugar in a separate bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
4. Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
5. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
6. To assemble the sandwiches, place the grilled chicken strips on the sandwich rolls, top with the sweet onion sauce, and add lettuce and tomato slices as desired.
