Alice Springs Chicken is a popular dish from the Outback Steakhouse restaurant. It typically features grilled chicken breasts topped with bacon, mushrooms, and a delicious honey mustard sauce. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try at home:
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
For the Honey Mustard Sauce:
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
For Toppings:
- 8 slices of bacon, cooked until crispy
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
Instructions:
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill.
- Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- While the chicken is grilling, prepare the honey mustard sauce. In a bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, and yellow mustard until well combined. Set aside.
- In a separate pan, sauté the sliced mushrooms over medium heat until they are cooked and any liquid has evaporated.
- Once the chicken is cooked, top each breast with 2 slices of crispy bacon, sautéed mushrooms, and a generous amount of shredded Colby Jack cheese.
- Close the grill lid and let the cheese melt for a couple of minutes.
- Drizzle the honey mustard sauce over the top of each chicken breast.
- Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
