Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Cheese Sauce Preparation

  1. 2

    Make the Roux

    In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for about 1-2 minutes until it turns a light golden color.

  2. 3

    Add Milk and Seasoning

    Gradually whisk in the whole milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to cook, whisking constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  3. 4

    Incorporate Cheese

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar and Gruyère cheese until completely melted and smooth.

Combine Ingredients

  1. 5

    Combine Pasta and Lobster

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked macaroni, cheese sauce, and lobster meat. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated.

Topping Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare Topping

    In a small bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and melted unsalted butter until the mixture is well combined.

Baking

  1. 7

    Bake the Mac and Cheese

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