Notes

**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! 🙂

    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.

    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!

    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.

    I made this tonight. It was great. I left out the mushrooms because I'm not a fan and neither is my boyfriend. I did however cook little red potatoes and carrots and put them on the bottom of the 9*9 pan. It was delicious. And like I read above, no leftovers for me either. I'll have to make more next time.

      We have a lot of side dishes on our blog that would go well with this. A salad goes well, some potatoes and any of our veggie recipes. Hope this helps. On the front page of our blog click on Categories. Then you see salads, sidedishes, and all kinds of ideas.

    Is the extra sauce necessary or will this be tasty enough without more sauce. One reviewer suggested putting cut up cooked pink potatoes and carrots on the bottom of the casserole dish. That sounded like a nice idea. I am planning to make the recipe and want to decide if I need the extra sauce. Thanks so much.

    This recipe looks awesome...always wondered what was in the chicken....as coming from the real Alice Springs in Australia i never felt the need to try our namesake dish when i visited an outback steakhouse...needless to say this is also in no way an actual dish native to Alice Springs!...Looking forward to trying it!

    made this tonight and it is a keeper! Was a bit salty but that could be from the seasoning salt. Used half yellow mustard and half Dijon as that's what I had on hand. Used "Habanero" cheese blend, again as that's what I had... Definitely added to the rotation! Thank you!
