- In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic, and sauté for about 7-8 minutes until soft.
- Add 1 lb of lean ground chicken to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned.
- In a separate bowl, combine tomato sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar. Pour into the skillet, stirring to blend.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer the filling for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust consistency with water if needed.

Notes
Ensure to toast the buns to prevent sogginess and enhance crunchiness. Adjust spice levels to your preference and experiment with cheese varieties for added richness.
