Ingredients
- 4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
- Spices: Paprika, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Salt, and Black Pepper
- 1/2 Cup Honey Mustard Dressing
- 8 Slices of Cooked and Crumbled Bacon
- 1 Cup Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
- 1 Cup Sautéed Mushrooms (Optional)
- 1/4 Cup Fresh Parsley, Chopped (for Garnish
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well-coated.
2. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Cook the seasoned chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked and the juices run clear.
3. Once the chicken is cooked, brush the honey mustard dressing generously over each piece. Top the chicken with the crumbled bacon, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and sautéed mushrooms (if using).
4. Cover the skillet with a lid or transfer the chicken to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and become bubbly.
5. Sprinkle the fresh chopped parsley over the top of the Outback Steakhouse Alice Springs Chicken and serve immediately, while the cheese is still hot and melty.
Notes
To ensure your Outback Steakhouse Alice Springs Chicken turns out perfectly every time, consider these helpful tips and tricks:
Opt for large, plump chicken breasts that are of similar size for even cooking. You can also use thinly sliced chicken cutlets to reduce the cooking time.
While the recipe calls for cooking the chicken in a skillet, you can also grill the chicken breasts for a delicious smoky flavor. Adjust the cooking time as needed to ensure they are cooked through.
Feel free to tweak the seasoning blend to suit your personal preferences. Start with the recommended amounts and add more of any spice you’d like to amplify.
If you prefer, you can swap the honey mustard dressing for another flavor, such as barbecue or ranch. You can also experiment with different cheese varieties or add other toppings like caramelized onions or diced tomatoes.
