• In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, mustard and honey. Pound chicken with a meat mallet to 1/2-in. thickness. Sprinkle chicken with steak seasoning. Grill chicken, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat until a thermometer reads 165°, 4-6 minutes on each side Top with cheese during the last 1 minute of cooking., Grill buns over medium heat, cut side down, until toasted, 30-60 seconds.

MUSHROOM BACON SWISS CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• 1. Using a wok or deep skillet either spray with cooking spray or add the olive oil. Place chicken breasts in bottom of pan & sprinkle with pepper if desired. If using peppered bacon, eliminate the pepper as it can become overly peppered. Brown chicken for 4-5 min. on each side. Remove the chicken from the pan & place to the side while preparing the remaining ingredients. (I place it in a warming dish on the stove so it did not cool too much)
• 2. Leaving the drippings from the chicken in the wok/skillet, fry the bacon to desired crispness, remove & place bacon on paper towel to strain the remaining grease. Lightly saute' the onions & mushrooms in the pan drippings for about 5 min. Chop the bacon into chunks while the mushrooms & onions saute'.
• 3. Turn heat to medium & Replace Chicken breasts in bottom of pan and cover with the mushroom mixture, & sprinkle the bacon & top with the shredded Swiss. You will not use all the bacon, I freeze the rest so I can use it in additional baking & cooking for flavor. Cover the pan with a lid, while you make the remaining side dishes. Once the cheese is completely melted turn heat to low until ready to serve.

• 2. In same skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain.
• 3. Sauté onion and mushrooms in drippings. Return chicken to pan. Top with bacon, onion, mushrooms and swiss cheese. Cover and let stand 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

CHICKEN BACON SWISS BRAID

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Use 2 quart bowl, mix all ingredients well except for egg white and crescent rolls; stir by hand.
• Roll out crescent rolls onto cookie baking sheet; do not separate.
• Seal seams.
• Using a pizza cutter, cut crescents into strips (starting on longest sides of cookie sheet, cut sides of dough into eight strips, about 1 1/2 inches wide and 3 inches long).
• Spread chicken mixture down the center of the crescents.
• Starting at one end, lift one strip of dough; twist one turn and lay across the top of the filling.
• Repeat, alternating strips of dough to form a braid.
• Fold the bottom edges of the dough up at the ends of braid.
• Brush top of dough with a lightly beaten egg white, if desired.
• Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown; cover with foil when baking or crust becomes too brown.
• (Note: You can use 2 cans of the larger big and flaky crescent rolls (6 sections instead of eight) and make 2 smaller braids instead of one large braid (one can per braid) and it works fine. You use 1/2 of the chicken mixture for each braid).
