  • Cut each chicken breast into thin, almost deli-style slices with a meat slicer or very sharp knife. Toss with Cajun seasoning and let rest to absorb the seasoning and thaw, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Melt clarified butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and green pepper; saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken and mushrooms. Use a fork or spatula to break apart the chicken as it cooks-you want that authentic shredded/pulled texture. Cook until chicken is very nearly done, about 8 minutes.
  • Add pepper Jack cheese and banana peppers. Toss and stir until cheese is well incorporated, melted, and gooey.
  • Spread mayonnaise on the insides of the rolls, then load them up with the meat-cheese mixture and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Toast in the preheated oven until cheese is slightly brown and rolls are crisp and toasted, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
