A Favourite Chicken Dish

  I found this delicious chicken recipe a few months ago, and both my husband and I like it a lot.  So, I thought I would share the recipe here, so you all can make it and hopefully enjoy it as well.  :) 





  Cheddar, Bacon, Mushroom Chicken, served with sautéed spinach.  As a side note, spinach is one of my favourite vegetables! (fresh not canned) It's loaded with good vitamins and minerals, in fact, I might do a post next time on the benefits of eating spinach. :) But for now, here is the promised chicken recipe:


Cheddar, Bacon, Mushroom Chicken

Serves: 4 
Baking time: 25 minutes

1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup olive oil
2 Tbsp natural sugar
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper 
2 boneless chicken breast, halved length wise 
2 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
8 bacon strips
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:

Mix mustard, olive oil, sweetener, paprika, sea salt, and ground pepper together in a bowl. Pour into a large, sealable bag and add chicken breasts. Toss to coat evenly. Marinate in the fridge for 2 hours (the longer, the better).

Fry bacon. Set aside on paper towel to absorb the excess oil. Discard all but 1 Tbsp of bacon fat. Sauté  mushrooms in bacon fat.

Arrange chicken in a baking dish. Top each piece of chicken with two strips of bacon. Pour mushrooms over top and sprinkle with cheddar cheese.  Enjoy!

Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.

  4. I'm really not sure Amy, the taste of Dijon mustard is a different than regular mustard, but I would sure try substituting it if that is all I had. I think it would be good as well. :)
