"Chicken is glazed with mustard and honey, then baked with bacon and cheese. A favorite!"
Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast
halves
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup prepared mustard
|
lemon pepper to taste
4 slices bacon, cut in half
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
|
Directions:
1. | Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). |
2. | Place the chicken breast halves in a baking dish, and drizzle evenly with honey and mustard. Sprinkle with lemon pepper. |
3. | Bake chicken 25 minutes in the preheated oven. Top each breast half with 2 bacon slice halves, and sprinkle evenly with cheese. Continue baking 10 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear, bacon is crisp, and cheese is bubbly.
My ingredients: I used Dijon mustard instead of regular mustard and Garlic Pepper instead of Lemon Pepper and real Bacon pieces instead of raw bacon. It's what i had on hand...
The recipe doesn't say to mix the honey with the mustard so I just squirted some on..didn't measure anything. Sprinkled the Garlic Pepper on then put it in the oven. My chicken baked for 35 min. before it was done and then I sprinkled the cooked bacon pieces over the top and put a couple handfuls of Mozzarella cheese on top. Then put it back in the oven and kind of forgot it so the cheese got a little over cooked.
I really liked the taste of the bacon with the chicken and the cheese. I will be making this again since it really was easy and tasty. I will keep a closer eye on the melt the cheese step though! haha Bobby and Jonathan both liked it too. I included a link to the actual recipe so you can read the reviews on the web site. They have a lot of suggestions.
Had to include this picture.. see my friend?? teehee |
