Instructions

- Cook the Mushrooms: In the same pan, melt butter and cook the mushrooms until tender and golden brown.
- Assemble the Chicken: Place chicken in a baking dish, brush with honey mustard sauce, then top with mushrooms, bacon, and cheese.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake in a 375°F oven for 20-25 minutes until cheese is bubbling and chicken is cooked through.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with extra honey mustard sauce on the side.
Notes
For an extra flavor kick, marinate the chicken in honey mustard sauce before cooking. This dish is customizable; skip mushrooms if necessary.
