This chicken is fantastic! Although it's best as written, it's easy to make it (slightly) healthier and still taste rich and delicious- LOWER FAT/CALORIE VERSION: Rather that use 'real' bacon, I chopped up turkey bacon and fried it very crisp, adding the mushrooms and some onion about 1/2 way through. Also, rather than fry the chicken in oil, I marinated it for about 30m in about 2 tb low fat buttermilk and 1/2 the amt of season salt for 30 mins before coating a non stick pan in fat free cooking spray. The extra liquid that comes off the chicken from the buttermilk combined with the spray is plenty to cook it in. You don't get that pretty golden fried look, but once you smother the chicken you won't see it anyhow, so big deal. Also, use low fat mayo for the sauce. Again, once it's all together, you will not be able to tell the difference. I also use less cheese, just enough to cover is plenty to keep it all together, or I'll put a slice of swiss (healthier than cheddar) instead. With these modifications you can have an impressive feast without the guilt. Also, this honey mustard is THE BEST. I usually only make the chicken for 2, but always make the full amt. of sauce and keep it in the frige. Sometimes I even make just the honey mustard to go with other dishes, it's THAT good!!!
