I used dijon mustard instead of prepared and I marinated my chicken in the dressing for about 4 hours along with the season all, it was amazing.

Delicious. Had i not made it myself i would have thought it was takeout from OUTBACK.

This is my daughter’s favorite. Thank you for the recipe.

If you don’t want to bother with the honey mustard homemade the Ken’s Steakhouse Honey Mustard tastes exactly like the Outback honey mustard. I tend to use it instead. I saute fresh portobello mushrooms in a bit of the bacon grease too.
Stephanie Manley
Great call on the honey mustard. I love the Ken’s Salad dressings.
David DiPerna
I am sorry but I didn’t catch what you are marinating the chicken in? Can someone help? thx

I used Lawry’s seasoned salt as I already had it on hand. French’s mustard works great with any mayo and then the honey. I make honey mustard sauce without the corn syrup, use it all the time for chicken dip. My family thought this was delicious and a fraction of the cost of dinner at the Outback. Served with grilled asparagus and ciabatta bread slices. About $12.00 for dinner for four.

This was an awesome recipe! I always order this when we go to Outback because I don’t eat steak. The honey mustard was delicious, but I had to add extra honey and corn syrup because it was too mustardy. I omit mushrooms because I don’t like them. We’d loved this and will make it again soon.

Thank you for this. I will be picking up 40 pounds of chicken (boneless, skinless chicken breasts from Zaycon Foods on Nov 2nd) and need some different recipes so everyone doesn’t cringe with “chicken again” .
I’m happy I won the chicken but really happy to find recipes like this to keep “changing things up”

Made it for dinner tonight and it was great.
tweaked the mustard sauce how ever.
just swapped out the corn syrup for agave necter-and a little real maple syrup.
to make it a little healthier.
came out great!!
Roxy
I’m really excited to try this recipe, but I’m having a hard time finding McCormick Season All. Do you have any suggestions for a substitution?
Stephanie
I would just use another type of seasoned salt.
Stephanie
I love this recipe! I always receive many compliments on this one.

What is prepared salad mustard?
Is is the mustard that you would put on a hamburger. Mustard also comes in a dry powdered form. I hope this helps! ~Stephanie
Mary
Made this tonight for dinner. It is the only thing my daughter will order at Outback. It was great and tastes just like the restaurant. I would recommend that more Honey Mustard dressing be put on the chicken breasts. It was delicious!
Bryn
This tastes just like Outbacks. And it is soooo freakin yummy!
