Easy Cheesy Bacon Chicken Recipe
This totally crave-worthy dish is just as delicious as it is easy to make! Your family will love it, and we hope you enjoy it, too!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- ⅔ cup Worcestershire sauce
- 4 slices bacon
- 8 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 8 oz mozzarella cheese
Honey Mustard Sauce
- ¼ cup light mayonnaise
- ¼ cup honey dijon mustard
Instructions
- Poke chicken breasts with a fork a few times, then place in a Ziploc with Worcestershire sauce. Refrigerate for at least one hour (or overnight).
- While the chicken marinates, start working on your other ingredients.
- Fry four slices of bacon over medium heat until they reach desired crispiness. When finished, remove the bacon from the pan and place it on a paper towel.
- Meanwhile, slice your onion and cut up your mushrooms, then sautee over medium heat. (Use a separate pan from the bacon.)
- Sautee the chicken in the same pan you used to cook the bacon. Cover with a lid to keep your meat extra juicy!
- Cook the chicken on medium heat until no longer pink in the middle.
- When your chicken is golden delicious, start layering on a foil-lined baking sheet!
- Layer the bacon first (breaking it into smaller pieces), then add the mushrooms and onions, and finish with the cheese.
- Put it in the oven on low broil and watch it closely. Everything is cooked, so you just want to let the cheese melt, bubble, and brown slightly.
- While the chicken broils, mix your honey mustard.
- When your chicken is done, remove it from the oven, serve with your sauce, and enjoy!
Notes
If your chicken is thick, pound it a mallet so it's flatter. That will help the toppings stay on easier, and the chicken will cook faster, too!
