Who can resist this dish? This is an Outback Steakhouse copycat Alice Springs Chicken recipe featuring chicken, bacon, mushrooms, cheese, and an irresistible sauce!
Combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, grainy Dijon mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Mix well until smooth and set aside.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking sheet and pop them in your preheated 375-F oven to finish cooking them.
Meanwhile, in the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are tender and browned, about 5 minutes.
Remove the cooked chicken breasts from the oven. Top each breast with a generous amount of the honey mustard sauce, 2 slices of cooked bacon, followed by the cooked mushrooms.
Sprinkle the shredded Colby Jack cheese evenly over the chicken breasts.
Put the chicken on the baking sheet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the sliced green onions on top before serving.
Notes
Chef Jenn's Tip
Use a meat thermometer to ensure your chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F for the best results
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to keep it juicy
Serve the extra sauce for dipping.
Try using a mix of cheeses for a different flavor profile
For a smoky twist, grill the chicken breasts before assembling the dish
