Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 ½ Tablespoon olive oil divided, or avocado oil
- 4 lices turkey bacon or low-sodium center-cut bacon

Honey mustard sauce
- ¼ cup yogurt plain, Greek

Instructions
- In a small bowl mix together salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika.
- Pat chicken dry with a paper towel and season garlic powder mixture.
- Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 8-10 minutes on each side until fully cooked and browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, honey, and lemon juice until smooth. Season with a little salt and pepper.
- Wipe pan clean. In the same skillet, cook the turkey bacon until crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess fat. Once cool, chop the bacon into small pieces.

- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the cooked chicken breasts in a baking dish. Spread a generous amount of the honey mustard sauce on each chicken breast. Top each chicken breast with sautéed mushrooms and chopped turkey bacon.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
