Last night I made Alice Springs Chicken from Outback Steakhouse. But a low carb version. We had some people over and they thought it was awesome too. They aren't even on the diet.
4 chicken breasts (I trim the fat off just because I'm picky)
1/2 cup dijon mustard
1/2 simple syrup (sugar free)
1 tablespoon canola oil
8 strips of bacon
Mushrooms (optional)
Butter
Mexican style shredded cheese about 1 cup
Mix the mustard, simple syrup and oil in a mixer.
Marinade the chicken for 4 hours. (I only marinated for about 5 minutes because I was in a hurry)
Preheat the oven to 350.
Spray a casserole dish and set aside.
Sear the chicken in a pan on the stove. Pretty much until it's about all cooked through.
Saute the mushrooms in the butter until cooked.
Cook the bacon and place two strips on each chicken. If you're adding the mushrooms add on top of bacon then top it all off with the cheese. (I topped with a lot of cheese)
Put in the oven for 7-10 minutes. Just until the cheese is bubbly.
ENJOY!
Without mushrooms only 1 carb per chicken breast
with mushrooms only 3 -3.5 carbs per chicken
