BUFFALO CHICKEN MAC AND CHEESE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Grease a 9- x 13-inch casserole or spray it with cooking oil spray. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
• Make the topping. In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs with the chopped parsley, blue cheese (or Parmesan), and melted butter. Toss to blend the ingredients and set aside.
• Place a large saucepan of water over high heat and bring to a bowl. Add the salt and pasta. Reduce the heat to maintain a boil and cook the macaroni following package directions for al dente. Drain the pasta and then transfer it to a large bowl; set aside.
• Prepare the chicken. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and celery; cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until the celery is softened and the onion is translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute longer.
• Add the hot sauce and the shredded chicken to the onion and celery mixture and simmer for about 1 minute longer, or until hot. Transfer to the bowl with the macaroni and set aside.
• Make the cheese sauce. Melt the remaining butter in a saucepan over medium heat (or use the same pan used to cook the macaroni). Add the flour and mustard powder and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
• Gradually whisk the half-and-half and milk into the flour and butter mixture along with the remaining hot sauce. Cook, stirring, until the sauce is thickened. Add the shredded cheddar and pepper jack cheeses to the sauce along with the sour cream. Stir until the cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth. Taste the sauce and add kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
• Add the cheese sauce to the bowl with the macaroni and chicken mixture and stir until the ingredients are well combined.
• Turn the macaroni mixture into the prepared casserole.
• Bake, uncovered, for about 25 minutes, or until the breadcrumb topping is browned and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
• Serve Buffalo macaroni and cheese with carrot sticks and a garnish of parsley or a drizzle of hot sauce.
