- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
- seasoning salt
- 6 slices bacon, cut in half
- 1/4 cup mustard
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons mayo
- 1/2 tablespoon dried onion flakes
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
- 2 cups shredded Colby/Jack cheese
Directions:
Sprinkle and rub the chicken breasts with seasoning salt. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Cook bacon in a large skillet until crisp.
In a small bowl, mix the mustard, honey, mayo and dried onion flakes.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in the skillet and saute for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until browned. Move chicken to an 11×7 inch or 9×9 inch pan.
Apply the honey mustard to each breast, then layer with mushrooms, bacon, and shredded cheese.
Bake in a 350° oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cheese is melted and chicken is done.
**When my mom makes this, she makes tops each individual chicken breast with sauce, bacon, mushrooms, and cheese so it looks pretty . . . I made mine “casserole style” and just spread out the sauce, bacon, mushrooms, and cheese all over the place (I’m lazy like that). Either way, it tastes the same! 
Serve with honey mustard sauce.

This looks sooo good! I can’t wait to try this! You’ll make my husband one very happy man
Ooh, la la!!! Gonna try this one this week!!
you had me at baccon and cheese.
i must have this!
I order this everytime I go to Outback. The picture looks VERY different from their’s, but I am definately going to try it and see how it compares.
this is my favorite thing to order at outback, because im not a huge steak fan. will definitely have to try this at home. yum!
I am not a big mushroom fan. Me and my sister always make it with grilled onions on top instead. It is still amazing!
This recipe sounds delish. I will have to give it a try. I am always trying to find good chicken recipes.

OMG, this is my favorite dish at Outback! But the one where I grew up closed and I haven’t been to one in years! DEFINITELY going to make this. So glad I found your blog.
Made this sans mushrooms and my family loved it! Thanks so much for sharing! It made our night.
I make this all the time. We love it. I make it like your Mom though. And I have found that the Chick-fil-A Roasted Honey BBQ sauce (or something like that, and it’s kept behind the counter) makes it taste awesome!!! Whenever I go to Chick-fil-A, I ask for extras and take home the rest to use when I make this.
This was delicious, I made it the other day, and it was a huge hut. I swapped turkey bacon and used light mayo and cheese to try and cut out some calories. Still totally delicious, thank you so much for sharing this recipe, it was very much so enjoyed!
Looks yummy. Going to try this over the weekend.
Looks yummy. Going to try this over the weekend.
the recipe just says mustard – does that mean yellow mustard? for the sauce it specifies, but i didn’t see it specified in the chicken recipe – let me know, thanks!
I just used yellow mustard, but I think that you could use Dijon mustard and it would still taste delicious!:)
I made this for my parents tonight and my Mom said how good it was 4 or 5 times. She happens to love honey mustard so the sauce especially was a big hit. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
This IS an awesome recipe! I use it for company suppers. It’s even better if you marinate the chicken in the morning in Worcestershire sauce/oil/balsamic vinegar – adds a lot.
What are dried onion flakes – like what you would put on a green bean casserole?
No, in the spice aisle they have dried onion. You can use dried minced onion.
Just had this. It is AMAZING and easy to make too! Thanks so much!
Gorgeous! And looks so yummmy!
I made this tonight and it was fantastic! I didn’t realize that I needed to make the honey mustard sauce to sit overnight, so it only had 3 hours. I don’t think it made difference, it was the best part. Thanks for the recipe.
Found you through Pinterest and made this tonight. It was a big hit! Thanks for the recipe; I’ll be putting it in the rotation.
Just made this and it was very good. I would definitely make again. Didn’t have any mushrooms in the house so I didn’t use them. I would next time. I also had chicken cutlets that were already sliced really thin. It would have been better to have them a little thicker. I used yellow mustard in the sauce that went on the chicken and it was very good. I think any kind of mustard would work, it would just give it a different taste. Didn’t bother with the extra sauce. I could see this being a great company dish as you could prep ahead and then just put it in the oven when needed.
Started to make chicken and my girls said, ‘chicken, again!”. So I turned to this recipe and oh my! DELICIOUS! This is my girls’ favorite at Outback. The sauce is identical. My husband and I skipped the cheese and the bacon and it was still yummy. Thanks so much for sharing!
Just finished eating this. O. M. G! Best recipe EVER!! Thankyou
Have made this several times now!! It has become a favorite
Absolutely delicious!
I’ve made this before, and it’s great! I have canned mushrooms this time…will that be okay?
I think that canned mushrooms would work okay. Just drain them really well and you should be good to go!
I made this tonight and was pretty pleased. I haven’t had Alice Springs Chicken enough to remember how it tasted but Husband said it was “close”. Upon taking his first bite, he looked at me and said “THIS is tasty!” I’m pretty sure this will now make a regular showing at our table. Thanks!
Are the chicken breasts frozen or thawed when you rub with seasoning salt and then refrigerate them?
Thawed!
We made this last night and OMG IT IS SO STINKIN GOOD! We sauteed our chicken in the bacon grease (can you just feel your arteries clogging with yummy goodness?) and holy cow–totally worth it. Next time, we’re going to add caramelized onions to the mix. We’re also going to attempt shredding the chicken and making quesadillas! Shared the recipe with my MIL and she can’t wait to try it.
Made this tonight. Totally LOVED!!! This is my favorite dish at the Outback and it totally satisfied me! Hubby didn’t love it, but it’s also not his favorite dish and he’s not a fan of mustard anything.
The honey mustard mix tasted identical. Thank you!!!
my family LOVES this. I make it and put it over rice on the nights I have to make it last.
