# Detailed Cooking Steps:
01 -
Use a meat hammer to flatten the chicken breasts to the same thickness. Cut bigger pieces in half if needed.
02 -
Mix olive oil, kosher salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, buffalo sauce, and honey in a bowl. Add chicken and coat it well. Cover and chill for at least an hour or up to two days.
03 -
Heat your grill to medium-high and oil the grates. Cook the chicken about 5 to 6 minutes per side. Turn and brush on more buffalo sauce to get a nice glaze.
04 -
Put the cheese on the chicken during the last bit of grilling so it can melt perfectly.
05 -
Whip up mayo, red wine vinegar, dried dill, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss that with iceberg lettuce, red onion, pepperoncini, and tomato slices.
06 -
Toast the buns. Stack the grilled chicken with melted cheese, the slaw, tomato slices, and mayo if you want. Eat right away.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
Letting the chicken soak in marinade longer helps it taste better and get tender.

Flattening the chicken makes sure it cooks nicely and stays juicy.
