How to make Alice Springs Chicken in Oven.
- Preheat the oven to 350 and grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place defrosted chicken breasts on the pan in a single layer and sprinkle with seasoned chicken with salt. If you need to pound a piece of chicken to evenness, it’s fine to do so. Chicken cooks best and most even when all pieces are similar in size.
- Combine Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, and dry minced onion in a separate bowl.
- Mix well and generously spread the honey mustard sauce onto the top of the chicken breasts.
- Top with sliced mushrooms and Colby Jack cheese.
- Sprinkle with bacon bits (or fresh bacon).
- Bake Alice Springs Chicken for 30 minutes in preheated oven or until the chicken is cooked in the center and the meat thermometer reads at 165 degrees in the thickest part of the chicken.
Outback Honey Mustard Sauce
Make extra honey mustard sauce for dipping.

Trisha says
you can pop the recipe link into carbmanager to read carbs, I havent found anything 100% reliable so I dont like to give nutritional advice.
Amanda says
The best Alice Springs Chicken recipe out there! Instead of mustard, I used Dijon mustard. I also bacon in the oven for 10 minutes, poured the bacon fat into a cast iron skillet and then followed the recipe, putting the bacon on top instead of bacon bits. Thank you soooo much for creating this recipe!!!! ❤️
Trisha says
Amanda, after I got your comment I did a double take, because the recipe SHOULD say Dijon. I dont know how I only typed mustard. Thank you for the catch and so happy you love your Alice springs chicken dinner!
Laurel says
Any idea what the carbs are in one serving?
Trisha says
Hi Laurel, I do not track carbs on most of my articles because I would not want to be responsible for someones diet needs. You can easily input your information into apps, I hear CarbManager is great!
Kari says
Can’t make this soon enough like every part of it. The stay at home is one big plus, I’m in my 73 year of life it’s hard to get out.
Trisha says
73 years young if you are still cooking delicious meals! Let me know if I can be of any help to you Kari!
Felecia says
How can this be a keto recipe
Trisha Haas says
Its def not keto or listed as keto, however if you are asking how to make it one, just don’t use the sauce. Chicken, cheese and mushrooms should be keto? I am def not experienced enough to tell you all alterations of this.
