I am always looking for new recipes to try and ways to “spice up” plain old chicken breasts and this one is awesome! This recipe is very similar to a chicken dish served at a local well-known restaurant, and a friend of mine was kind enough to share it.
~Aussie Chicken~
4
boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to ½ inch thickness
Seasoning
salt
6
slices bacon, cut in half
¼ cup
regular mustard
1/3
cup honey
2 Tbsp
mayonnaise
1/2
tsp dried onion flakes
1 cup
sliced fresh mushrooms
2 cups
shredded Colby Jack Cheese
Sprinkle
and rub the chicken breasts with seasoning salt. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile,
cook bacon in a large skillet until crisp.
Remove bacon (do not discard grease).
In a small bowl, mix the mustard, honey, mayo and dried onion
flakes.
Sauté
chicken in the bacon grease for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until browned. Move chicken to a 9x13 pan.
Apply
the honey mustard to each breast, then layer with mushrooms, bacon, and
shredded cheese.
Bake
in a 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and chicken
is done.
Serve
with honey mustard sauce.
~Honey Mustard Sauce~
1/2 cup
mayonnaise
2 Tbsp
regular yellow mustard
1 Tbsp
Dijon mustard
1/4cup
honey
1 Tbsp
dried onion flakes
1/2 Tbsp
lemon juice
Mix the
mayo, mustards, honey, onion flakes and lemon juice together in a bowl. Cover and chill in refrigerator overnight. Serve with chicken.
