1. Prepare the White BBQ Sauce:

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  2. Chill: Cover and refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

2. Prepare the Chicken:

  1. Season Chicken: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. Grill Chicken: Grill the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and are nicely charred on the outside. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes.
  3. Slice Chicken: Slice the grilled chicken breasts into thin strips.

3. Assemble the Subs:

  1. Toast Rolls: Lightly toast the sub rolls if desired.
  2. Add Chicken and Sauce: Spread a generous amount of the white BBQ sauce on the inside of each sub roll. Layer the sliced chicken on the bottom half of the roll.
  3. Add Toppings: Top the chicken with shredded lettuce, tomato slices, red onion slices, and pickles (if using). Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top, if desired.
  4. Drizzle Sauce: Drizzle a bit more white BBQ sauce over the toppings for extra flavor.
  5. Close and Serve: Place the top half of the sub roll over the fillings and press gently. Serve immediately.

Tips and Variations:

  • Chicken Alternatives: You can use shredded rotisserie chicken for a quicker option or substitute with grilled turkey or pork.
  • Vegetable Variations: Add or substitute other fresh vegetables like cucumber slices, bell peppers, or avocado.
  • Spicy Kick: Increase the amount of cayenne pepper in the sauce or add sliced jalapeños for extra heat.
  • Make Ahead: Prepare the white BBQ sauce and marinate the chicken in advance for quicker assembly.
