Arby's Chicken Cheesesteak
Seasoned chicken with melted white American Cooper cheese and caramelized onions on a toasted sesame seed sub roll.
About the Chicken Cheesesteak
Chicken takes the place of beef in the Arby's Chicken Cheesesteak, a $7.49 sandwich with 660 cal and one of the simplest builds on the menu. The build is seasoned chicken, caramelized onions and a blanket of melted white American Cooper cheese, all inside a toasted sesame seed sub roll. No sauce, no vegetables, just three components that work well together.
That short ingredient list keeps the flavor clean. The chicken carries a savory, lightly peppered seasoning, and because it is chopped into small pieces, the seasoning reaches every bite. Cooper cheese is smooth and mellow, coating the chicken the way a good queso coats chips. The onions do the heavy lifting on flavor, cooked down until sweet and a little browned, so each mouthful gets a hint of caramel against the salty meat and cheese.
Texture is soft and tender throughout, with the sesame roll giving a toasty contrast on the outside. The look is classic cheesesteak: a long roll split open, golden chicken pieces glazed with white melted cheese, and ribbons of brown onion tucked in between.
Protein is where this sandwich quietly impresses. It delivers 49 grams of protein, more than the beef based Angus Cheesesteak, while staying at a moderate calorie count for a full sub. For anyone comparing Chicken Cheesesteak calories with the spicy or deluxe chicken versions, this plain build sits at the bottom of the range.
The Chicken Cheesesteak fits picky eaters, kids old enough for a full sandwich, and anyone who likes a cheesesteak but prefers poultry. It also makes a good blank canvas: ask for a sauce from the counter and you can steer it sweet, smoky or tangy. Austin, Texas pricing is shown above; your store can differ slightly.
On the Arby's cheesesteak menu, this is the starting point for the chicken lineup. Add heat and you get the Spicy Chicken Cheesesteak; add lettuce and tomato and you get the Deluxe. Need more food? The half pound version doubles down on the same recipe.
For sides, White Cheddar Mac 'n Cheese keeps the meal creamy and comforting, while Curly Fries bring the crunch this soft sandwich lacks.

How to Make Chicken Cheesesteak at Home?
This copycat keeps the Arby's formula of seasoned chicken, sweet onions and white American cheese, and it comes together in one skillet. Chicken thighs stay juicier than breast when chopped and seared hard, but either works.

Steps
All steps done. Enjoy your homemade Chicken Cheesesteak.
Tips
- • Pat the chicken dry before seasoning so it browns instead of steaming.
- • Sliced deli white American melts faster and smoother than shredded cheese.
- • Cook the onions a day early and rewarm them with the chicken to save 15 minutes.
Variations
- • Brush the rolls with garlic butter before toasting for a garlic bread twist.
- • Use leftover rotisserie chicken, chopped and warmed with the onions for 3 minutes.
- • Turn it into a quesadilla by folding the chicken, onions and cheese into large flour tortillas.
Serving Ideas
Serve with a creamy mac and cheese, a crunchy side salad or curly fries. Lemonade or unsweetened iced tea keeps the meal light.
