This is one of the more affordable restaurant recipes.  This is great for a busy weeknight dinner especially if you start marinading the night before.

Grilled chicken breast topped with bacon, honey mustard sauce, sautéed mushrooms, Monterrey Jack and Cheddar. Normally served with Aussie Chips.

You can also turn this into their delicious Alice Springs Chicken Quesadilla.  Simply slice thin and place inside of a flour tortilla along some bacon, honey mustard sauce, sauteed mushrooms and Mexican cheese blend.  Grill until crisp and serve with some additional honey mustard sauce.

Outback Steakhouse™ Alice Springs Chicken Recipe

This is one of the most popular restaurant recipes from Olive Garden™. This is a spicy sausage and bacon soup with russet potatoes and greens in a creamy broth.

If you substitute cauliflower for the potatoes, you can make a great low-carb Atkins friendly soup that will taste exactly like the original restaurant recipe from The Olive Garden™.  Another option would be to cook this up in a programmable crock pot with the pre-cooked sausage and backon in there.  It will be ready for you when you get home.  Just add the kale and cream before serving.

Serve this with a nice basket of Olive Garden™ Breadsticks and their house salad. A wonderful lunch or dinner meal for you and your family.

The most sought-after restaurant recipes tend to also be the most popular dishes at a restaurant and that definitely holds true for The Cheesecake Factory™ Chicken Madeira.  Many people will confuse this with their Chicken and Mushrooms in Marsala sauce. There are several differences, but it really comes down to using Madeira rather than Marsala wine.

This is an amazing blend of sauteed chicken topped with asparagus and melted cheese.  This is all topped with mushrooms in a Madeira wine sauce.  The Cheesecake Factory™ serves this with a generous portion of mashed potatoes.

Restaurant recipes from Olive Garden™ have become very popular lately.  If you’re asking how to make olive garden sangria? I don’t blame you.  The Olive Garden™ Sangria is a refreshing alcoholic beverage that’s perfect for any outdoor party.

Part of the secret to this recipe tasting just like the one you’ll find in Olive Garden™ is the type of wine you use.  Most people suggest using a Lambrusco wine.  Don’t spend too much money on the wine since you’re just going to drown it in the other ingredients.  Also make sure you’re mixing the sugar water before adding it to the blend.

Restaurant recipes are rarely shared on the restaurants website.  But, Olive Garden™ has decided to do just that with their new Caprese Flatbread.

A light and cripsy flat bread with a nice chunky tomato mixture, topped with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.  It’s reminds me of a very fresh and natural tasting pizza.

This is a great light snack you can enjoy on the patio with a crisp white wine such as Pinot Grigio.  Make a little extra and it could pass as a light main course served with a cool salad.

Ok, time to make this wonderful dish:
