Servings: persons

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (2 medium) or chicken breast cutlets
2/3 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large shallot, minced
4 sprigs of thyme, leaves only, minced
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 medium eggplant (about 1 pound), sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
1 red bell pepper
8 ounces smoked fresh mozzarella, sliced thin
1 baguette cut into 4 pieces or 4 sandwich (hoagie) rolls

1
If using full chicken breasts (instead or chicken cutlets), slice the meat into 1/2-inch thick strips and then pound each strip thin.
2
Make a marinade by whisking together the vinegar, oil, garlic, shallot, thyme, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Put the eggplant in a zip top bag or a glass dish. Pour half of the marinade over the eggplant. Put the chicken in a separate bag or dish and pour the other half of the marinade over it. Refrigerate the eggplant and chicken for about an hour.
3
Heat a grill to medium-high. Put the bell pepper on the hot grill and grill each side until blackened all over. Remove to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. When cool enough to handle, peel the charred skin from the pepper and slice into 1-inch strips.
4
Grill the marinated eggplant and chicken until the eggplant is tender and the meat is cooked through.
5
Arrange slices of smoked mozzarella on each piece of baguette. Top with pieces of hot chicken, eggplant and roasted peppers.
