Alice Springs Chicken (Outback Steakhouse Style)

Ingredients:

4 boneless chicken breasts

½ cup mustard

6 slices bacon

½ cup honey

2 teaspoons dried onion flakes

1 cup sliced mushrooms

2 cups grated Colby/Jack cheese

Instructions:

Season the Chicken:

Sprinkle chicken breasts with seasoning salt, rubbing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the seasoning penetrate the chicken.

Cook the Bacon:

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Set the bacon aside on a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the grease in the skillet.

Fry the Chicken:

In the same skillet with the bacon grease, cook the chicken breasts for 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown. Once seared, transfer the chicken to a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Prepare Honey Mustard Sauce:

In a bowl, mix together the mustard, honey, and dried onion flakes. Adjust the sweetness or tanginess of the sauce to your preference.

Assemble the Dish:

Spread the honey mustard sauce generously over each chicken breast. Top with sliced mushrooms, crumbled bacon, and grated Colby/Jack cheese.

Bake:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the chicken for 30 minutes, or until fully cooked and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve:

Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. You can serve with additional honey mustard sauce on the side for extra flavor.
