Buffalo Chicken Mac n’ Cheese Ingredients

Preparation

Cooking Directions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut chicken breasts into strips and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In a bowl, beat the egg and dip each chicken strip in the egg, then coat in bread crumbs.

2. Cook the Chicken

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken strips and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Once done, toss the chicken in Buffalo sauce and set aside.

3. Cook the Pasta

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add macaroni pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

4. Make the Cheese Sauce

In the same pot, combine milk and cream cheese over medium heat. Stir until smooth. Add shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted and creamy. Mix in the cooked macaroni.

5. Combine and Bake

Fold in the Buffalo chicken strips into the mac and cheese mixture. Pour into a greased baking dish, top with additional bread crumbs, and bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbling and golden on top.

6. Serve

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Buffalo Chicken Mac n’ Cheese!
