Outback Steakhouse is a casual dining American restaurant chain with over 900 locations in 23 countries throughout North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.
Outback Steakhouse specializes American cuisine, with Creole influences served in a faux-Australian-inspired environment. All meat is heavily seasoned, including a 17 spice blend for the steaks themselves. Most seafood items are served with a Creole remoulade sauce. Outback bills its food as "full flavor". This means it fries its food in vegetable shortening and uses real butter and heavy cream in many dishes. Healthy it's not. But is is good.
The Alice Springs Chicken is one of the most popular items on the menu and now you can make it at home.
