Bacon Mushroom Honey Dijon Chicken
This Bacon Mushroom Honey Dijon Chicken is unbelievable! I made this for my family, and they literally FLIPPED over it! In fact, my niece asked me to make it again while she was still eating it and she is a teenager, so you know that doesn’t happen very often. This is easy to make and is so moist and delicious.
If you are short on time, you can marinade it less but with at least two hours it is packed full of flavor! This easy dinner recipe contains all of my favorites! Chicken, bacon and cheese! It reminds of Alice Springs Chicken from Outback! My husband gobbled it up and thought it was out of this world delicious too! Be sure to give this yummy chicken recipe a try!
I served it with mashed potatoes, rolls and a vegetable. It is an easy recipe to make on a busy night but tastes like you spent hours on it!
