RANCH STYLE CHICKEN
Time to take out the grill again before summer gets away from us! Once again, compliments of Pinterest…
Ingredients:
6 boneless chicken breasts
1/2C honey
1/2C Dijon mustard
Juice from 1 lemon
1 tsp paprika
Red pepper flakes, if desired
1lb thick cut bacon
3tbsp bacon grease
2C grated sharp Cheddar cheese
Cut chicken breasts in half to form two fairly equally sized pieces. Use a meat mallet to adjust the thickness of each piece as necessary.
In a large bowl, combine honey, mustard, paprika (or cayenne), salt and red pepper flakes. Whisk until combined. Add chicken to bowl, coat well. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours.
Cook bacon until crispy and set aside.
Prepare grill or large pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken on each side for 3-5 minutes. When chicken is nearly done, top off with 2 slices of bacon and a mound of shredded cheese. Cook until chicken is cooked through and cheese is completely melted.
This is what we’re having for dinner tonight! We’ll see how it goes, but it sounds delicious!
