Chili's Monterey Chicken


3 Tbsp honey
3 Tbsp soy sauce
3 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
5 dashes garlic
5 dashes salt
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
8 slices apple-smoked bacon
8 Tbsp BBQ sauce, of your choice

1. Mix the honey, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic and salt together an place chicken breasts in it. Add enough water to bring the marinade up to the middle of the chicken breast.

OR

2. Mix together the marinade (as mentioned above) and place into a ZipLoc bag large enough for all the chicken breasts to fit inside. Add water until the marinade reaches the top of the chicken breasts. (This is my preferred method!)
3. Marinate for as close to 8 hours as possible.
4. To cook:
Bake, broil, grill or skillet fry. Anyway works well! Chili's grills. Choose your preferred method and cook until the breasts are done. (I usually grill them.)
5. While the breasts are cooking, fry up the bacon until CRISP!
6. When the chicken is done, top each breast with 2 TBSP of BBQ sauce, two strips of bacon and 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.
7. Microwave the breasts (or broil) until the cheese is melted (I broil them!)
8. Serve!

*WOW! This was incredible! Even my pickiest eater ate her entire helping! The flavor is awesome! This si a new favorite in our house for sure! Pick a GOOD BBQ sauce for this. It makes a difference in how great the flavor is!
