  • 1 tsp paprika powder or chili powder
  • 2 cup Colby/jack cheese, shredded
  • 2 cup sliced button mushroom
  • 1 jalapeno fine chopped

The honey mustard mixture
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1/3 cup yellow grainy mustard
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp of corn syrup
  • 1 tsp Mrs Dash Extra Spicy seasoning
Cooking instructions
  • Preheat the oven after the chicken has marinated.
  • Crisp the bacon in a pan until all the fat is completely rendered down
  • Remove from heat and place the bacon strips on a kitchen towel to soak up the excess oil
  • Place the chicken breasts into a large bowl
  • Add the seasoning, paprika powder, and garlic powder, jalapenos, chopped onions to it, massage the seasoning into the chicken and allow it to marinate for 45 minutes to an hour
  • While the chicken marinates, make the honey mustard sauce
  • How to make the sauce
  • Place a non-stick pan on low heat
  • Add the honey, mustard, Extra Spicy seasoning and mayonnaise
  • Stir properly until it is smooth and well-mixed
  • Add the corn syrup a little at a time, taste as you go, this is to balance the sharp flavor of the mustard
  • Bring to a light simmer and set it aside
  • The chicken should be marinated now
  • Add the bacon fat in the pan, return the pan to the heat (add olive oil if needed)
  • Arrange the chicken parts and allow to brown slightly on both sides (this should take about 2-3 minutes on each side)
  • Place the chicken breast in an aluminum foil tray
  • Spread the honey-mustard sauce over the chicken piece
  • Arrange slices of mushroom over the chicken
  • Crumble some bacon crisp over it
  • Pour plenty of cheese to cover the whole chicken
  • Pop the tray in the oven at 350 degrees until the cheese is completely melted (5-10 minutes)
  • Remove and serve with your favorite veggie slaw and a beer - lots of beer.
