Reserve about half of the sauce for serving later.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Marinate the Chicken<\/h3>\n<p>Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the remaining honey mustard sauce over the chicken, making sure every piece is evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for the best flavor.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Cook the Bacon<\/h3>\n<p>Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer it to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Saut\u00e9 the Mushrooms<\/h3>\n<p>In the same skillet, melt the butter and cook the sliced mushrooms for 5\u20136 minutes until tender and lightly browned.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5: Sear the Chicken<\/h3>\n<p>Remove the chicken from the marinade and lightly season with seasoned salt and black pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown. The chicken does not need to be fully cooked because it will finish cooking in the oven.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 6: Assemble<\/h3>\n<p>Preheat the oven to <strong>350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish.

Top with saut\u00e9ed mushrooms, two slices of crispy bacon, and plenty of shredded cheese.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 7: Bake<\/h3>\n<p>Bake for 10\u201315 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of <strong>165\u00b0F (74\u00b0C).<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Step 8: Garnish and Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately with extra honey mustard sauce.<\/p>\n<h2>Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n<p>This Alice Springs Chicken pairs perfectly with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Baked potatoes<\/li>\n<li>French fries<\/li>\n<li>Mashed potatoes<\/li>\n<li>Steamed broccoli<\/li>\n<li>Green beans<\/li>\n<li>Garden salad<\/li>\n<li>Roasted vegetables<\/li>\n<li>Garlic bread<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Storage<\/h2>\n<p>Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to <strong>3 days<\/strong>.
