Preparation Steps

1

Cook the Pasta

In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2

Make the Cheese Sauce

In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until bubbly. Gradually whisk in the milk and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently. Once the mixture thickens, reduce heat and stir in the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses until melted and smooth.

3

Combine Ingredients

Add the cooked macaroni, diced green chiles, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the cheese sauce. Mix until well combined.

4

Bake

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to a greased baking dish. Sprinkle breadcrumb topping evenly over the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.

5

Serve

Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Green Chile Mac and Cheese!
