Our favorite meal at home is now freezer friendly and healthified. Yes, you can mix up the marinade with the chicken and freeze for future “Outback” meals at home. Just thaw the chicken as it’s marinating in the dijon mustard, honey, lemon and oil. Throw it on the grill and serve it with a big baked sweet potato and you don’t have to fight the traffic or the hour long wait:)
What’s Alice Springs without the shrooms (mushrooms) bacon and cheese, e? Think healthier with me. I grill a packet of peppers, onions and shrooms along side the chicken and we’re almost set.
I top the grilled chicken with the sauteed veges from the grill, lay two halves of turkey bacon (microwaved) and sprinkle Monterey Jack Cheese on top. The bacon could be grilled on a piece of foil as well. It’s healthified with more veges, less fat and grilled instead of pan sauteed.
It’s still packed with flavor and juiciness from the marinade and you get your “Outback” fix.
