Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research.

Instructions

  1. Combine all of the ingredients for the garlic oil. Heat 1 tablespoon of the garlic oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When garlic begins to sizzle and smell fragrant, add the diced tomatoes and their liquid. Bring to a simmer, and simmer for about 10 minutes, until thickened slightly, breaking up the tomatoes a bit with a wooden spoon. Add the olives and basil. Season with salt & pepper to taste, set aside.
  2. Preheat your grill for at least 10 minutes. Season the chicken with salt & pepper and toss with 2 tablespoons of the garlic oil. Brush the eggplant with 2 more tablespoons of the garlic oil. Split the hoagie rolls open and brush with the remaining 2 tablespoons of garlic oil.
  3. Scrape clean and oil the grill grate (using a wad of paper towel dipped in oil). Add the eggplant and cook until tender about 5-7 minutes per side, turning once, remove eggplant from the grill and cover with foil while grilling the chicken. Add the chicken and grill until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side, adding the cheese for about the last 30 seconds to a minute. Remove chicken from the grill. Add the hoagie rolls, cut side down and grill until toasted.
  4. To assemble the sandwiches, layer some of the eggplant on the toasted roll, topped with a little of the sauce then some of the chicken and additional sauce.
