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 cheer leading, 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).

Sandie says
I have made this before but not this recipe.. can’t wait to make it again.. would love to know the amount of carbs….
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!
