Alice springs chicken has always been one of my all time favorite chicken dishes. I looked everywhere for the recipe that looked the closest and this is the winner + or - a few to my taste. We love onions so I always sauté some up with the mushrooms but whatever works best for you!

Wow! I've never had Alice Springs chicken before, in fact, I've never even heard of it before. This was extremely delicious. I made it exactly as stated except I chopped the bacon and fried it. I also fried some onions with the mushrooms. So, I just piled the chopped bacon, mushrooms and onions on each chicken breast and covered with cheese. It was great! Thanks.

    Yum! This is one of my favorite restaurant meals. I didn't have time to marinade, so I just liberally brushed the sauce on the breasts before roasting (I also cut the marinade/sauce portion in half). My husband HATES mushrooms, so I left those out, and used all cheddar cheese. It still came out very good; I'm sure with the mushrooms it's probably an exact replica.

    My family loved this chicken!! I've never tried the Outback version, so it didn't influence my rating either way. It just sounded yummy when I came across it, so I decided to give it a try! Didn't change a thing! Served it with green beans and a potato dish I found on zaar as well. Thanks for sharing!
