Outback Chicken

Outback Chicken
Marinade:
½ c Dijon Mustard
½ c honey
1 ½ tsp vegetable oil
½ tsp lemon juice
Chicken:
4 chicken breasts
10-12 sliced mushrooms
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp butter
dash salt, pepper, paprika
8 slices cooked bacon
1 c shredded Monterey jack cheese
1 c shredded cheddar cheese
2 tsp finely chopped fresh parsley

Use an electric mixer to combine the marinade in a small bowl. Whip the mixture for about 30 seconds. Pour about two-thirds of the marinade over the chicken breasts and marinate them, covered, in the refrigerator for about 2 hours. Chill the remaining marinade for later. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and sear the chicken in an oiled frying pan for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until golden brown. Remove the pan from the heat, but keep the chicken in the pan. As the chicken is cooking, in a small frying pan sauté the sliced mushrooms in butter or the bacon drippings. Brush each seared chicken breast with a little of the reserved honey mustard marinade (not the portion that the chicken soaked in), being sure to save a little extra you can serve on the side later with the dish. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and dash of paprika. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet. Stack two pieces of cooked bacon, crosswise, on each chicken breast. Spoon the sautéed mushrooms onto the bacon, being sure to coat each breast evenly. Spread 1/4 cup of Monterey Jack cheese onto each breast followed by 1/4 cup of Cheddar. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes or until the cheese is thoroughly melted and starting to bubble. Sprinkle each chicken breast with parsley before serving. Put extra honey mustard marinade into a small bowl to serve on the side.
