Alice Springs Chicken (Outback Copycat Recipe)

Alice Springs Chicken, an Outback Steakhouse Copycat Recipe, is a mind-blowing copycat recipe that will trick your senses into thinking you are out to eat instead of in your own kitchen.

Dripping in honey mustard sauce and crispy bacon, this Alice Springs Chicken Recipe is your new favorite OMYGOODNESS meal.

I have two favorite restaurants, Outback and Carrabba’s. Ironically they are sister restaurants and no surprise to me because they both have the delicious food thing down.

The only problem is that Outback is about 45 minutes from my house and that does not make a quick trip. On a weeknight it makes almost an impossible trip and on a weekend, with the kids in sports and scouts and cheerleading, it might as well be any night of the week.

But that doesn’t mean I cannot enjoy the incredible flavors of my favorite restaurant from the comfort of my own home!

Enter the copycat recipe.

While not served in my favorite ambiance, this Alice Springs Chicken recipe runs a close second to making you happy and is a fantastic copycat chicken! 

Moist chicken covered in cheese and honey mustard with just the sprinkling of mushrooms and bacon, making this a hearty dinner menu item that your entire family will be excited to eat. Or you can make a special date night for you and your honey and send the kids to their rooms with pizza (hey, mine like that).
