    Almost Alice Springs Chicken

    This delightful dish is served at Outback Steakhouse as Alice Springs Chicken. It is a grilled chicken breast, marinated in honey mustard, grilled and topped with bacon, mushrooms, and cheese. I have only had it once but never forgot it. While thinking about what I could do with a couple of chicken breasts, I remembered this dish. I searched the internet and ran across this knockoff recipe for Alice Springs Chicken. I made a couple of changes in the recipe and it was delicious. Michael declared it "flavorful."  I served it with homemade French fries and the reserved honey mustard for dipping. I just realized I forgot the parsley. The photo would have been prettier with a little color but we ate it too fast to miss the greenery.

    Ingredients

      • 1 cup Dijon mustard
      • 1 cup honey
      • 1 tablespoon canola oil
      • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
      • 4 -6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
      • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
      • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
      • 2 tablespoons butter
      • ½ teaspoon salt
      • ½ teaspoon pepper
      • ½ teaspoon paprika
      • 12 slices bacon, cooked
      • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
      • 1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
      • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley

    Directions

    1. With a whisk combine the mustard, honey, and 1 Tbsp oil, and lemon juice for 1 minute.
    2. Pour ½ mixture over chicken in a gallon ziplock to marinate in fridge 2-24 hours.
    3. Chill remaining marinade to serve with chicken.
    4. After marinating chicken, preheat oven to 375°F.  Put remaining oil in frying pan. Heat and sear chicken on both sides.
    5. Transfer chicken to oven safe pan and brush with marinade.
    6. Meanwhile in frying pan add butter and saute mushrooms.
    7. Season chicken breasts with salt and peppers.
    8. Stack bacon across each breast, spoon mushrooms on each breast and then approx ⅓- ½ cup cheese on each.
    9. Cover pan with foil and bake 7-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with honey mustard marinade.

        Kansas City is the closest one to me. About 90 miles. I think I will just give the recipe a try myself! Thanks!
