Meal No. 3696: Simplified Alice Springs Chicken

Almost six years ago, after the local paper covered a blue ribbon recipe from the Dixie Classic Fair, I tried a rather involved recipe for making Alice Springs chicken. That blog post says it was awesome, but I've only ever made it that one time. Fast forward to last Saturday night, when dear friends Amy and Gern were here, and I was hankering to bring it back but without quite so much effort! A simplified version popped up in a quick search online, and I thought: why not? I cooked some thick strips of Applewood smoked bacon on the grill, pounded those chicken breasts, prepped the honey mustard sauce (with some of the precious remnants from the now-defunct Colony Urban Farm), and grated Monterrey Jack cheese. We thought it was decent enough and didn't mind the mushy roasted spiced potatoes as long as the roasted whole green beans were solid second sides.
