Ranch Style Chicken

1. 1

   To begin, mix together mustard and honey. Add lemon juice , paprika, cayenne, and salt. Add pounded chicken to honey-mustard mix; marinate for 2-3 hours. While chicken marinates, fry bacon, reserving 1/4 cup grease.

2. 2

   Remove the chicken from the fridge and pour off excess marinade into the sink. Heat half of the reserved bacon grease with an equal quantity of canola oil in a clean skillet over medium-high to high heat. Cook chicken just until well-seared, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side.

3. 3

   Place partially cooked chicken breasts on a large baking sheet. Cook about ten minutes in the 400 degree oven, then remove the pan from the oven and top with bacon and cheddar cheese. Return pan to oven and cook another 5 minutes, until cheese has melted and bacon is sizzling.
