Let’s make honey barbecue chicken mac and cheese. M. That is actually insane. If you want to have extra fun, use a three pepper kobe jack. This is actually a Sriracha gura. And remember, if the cheese is cold, it will shred a lot easier. Once you’ve grated your cheese, cube some chicken thighs and add lots of buttermilk, hot sauce. And then just season with a little paprika, chili, and garlic. And then you just want to mix and marinate until you lose patience. Now, to make our beautiful cheese sauce, we’re going to melt down some butter, more garlic, chili, and paprika. And when the aroma starts to talk to your nose, add some evaporated milk. And then just finish this off with a little bit of heavy cream. anything to avoid a rue. When it starts to lightly talk back, kill the heat. I’m going to do pre-shredded cheddar so those additives emulsify the sauce. Then just add the three pepper Kobe Jack and our lovely Sriracha Gouda. This is what mac and cheese dreams are made of. Now today’s noodle of choice is some elbow macaroni. And then just make a quick layer into your baking dish. You can layer on a tiny bit more cheese. Finish off the top layer. Make the last layer of cheese. Then finally, we bake 350 20 minutes. While that bakes, we need a little bit of flour. Trust me. and add a lot of breadrumbs, the same seasonings as earlier, and just grab your beautiful chicken and add it to the dry batter. And then into a hot tub set at 350. After 5 minutes, it should be nice and golden like me. Now, I’m going to toss the chicken in some honey barbecue sauce. I’ll provide the recipe. Your mac and cheese should look beautiful like this. I like to make a healthy pile of my honey barbecue chicken. And finally, a little parsley to negate all those calories. And as always, [Music]
