Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 box(es) cavatelli pasta (cork screw pasta)
2 cup(s) Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
2 cup(s) Colby Jack cheese, shredded
1/2 stick(s) unsalted butter
2 1/2 cup(s) half and half
3 tablespoon(s) Wondra flour
3 medium sized boneless chicken breasts
1/3 cup(s) Frank's hot sauce
1 cup(s) cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup(s) chopped scallions

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut raw chicken breasts into small chunks and fry in a good olive or canola oil over medium heat until no longer pink. No need to brown, just make sure the breast chunks are cooked and still juicy. Drain chunks from pan and place in a bowl with 1/3 cup of Frank's Hot Sauce and allow to blend. In the meantime, begin boiling a pot of salted water for your pasta and bring to a rolling boil.
  • Pour 1/2 and 1/2 in medium-sized saucepan and add Wondra Flour. Mix well while still cold and begin warming over medium heat. Add 1/2 stick of butter and bring to a gentle low boil. Once milk and butter mixture begins to slightly boil, turn the temperature down to low and continue to stir. Begin adding your cups of both Monterey and Colby Jack cheese to the saucepan and occasionally stir until melted and well blended. Remove from heat.
  • Cook pasta according to package, drain and rinse well.
  • Return pasta to its pot. Add cheese sauce and marinated chicken chunks.
  • Blend well and spread evenly in a greased 9 x 13 pan.
  • Add shredded cheddar cheese to the top of dish and place in the oven for approximately 20-25 minutes. (Just enough until cheddar cheese melts and pasta is lightly brown on the ends). Remove from the oven and let stand for five minutes.
  • Sprinkle with chopped scallions and serve with a green tossed salad.

Buffalo Mac 'N' Cheese Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: nonstick cooking spray, unsalted butter, all purpose flour, whole milk, shredded mild cheddar cheese, kosher salt, macaroni, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, shredded rotisserie chicken, Frank's® RedHot® Buffalo Wings Sauce, celery, ranch dressing, crumbled blue cheese, red onion, scallion

Provided by Frank's RedHot

Categories     Dinner

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 ½ cups whole milk
2 cups shredded mild cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ½ cups macaroni, cooked for 2 minutes less than the package instructs
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
½ cup Frank's® RedHot® Buffalo Wings Sauce, plus more for serving
2 stalks celery
2 tablespoons ranch dressing
⅓ cup crumbled blue cheese
¼ cup red onion, finely diced
¼ cup scallion, sliced, green part only

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with nonstick spray.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring frequently to break up any clumps, for 5 minutes, or until the roux is light golden brown. Reduce the heat to medium, then slowly pour in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 8 minutes. Do not let the mixture come to a boil.
  • Remove the pot from the heat, add the mild cheddar cheese, and whisk until melted and smooth. Stir in the salt. Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and toss to coat well.
  • Transfer half of the mac and cheese mixture to the prepared skillet. Top with 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, then the remaining mac and cheese and remaining cup of sharp cheddar.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded rotisserie chicken and Frank's® RedHot® Buffalo Wings Sauce. Spoon on top of the mac and cheese.
  • Bake the mac and cheese for 30-35 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling around the edges of the pan. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 5 minutes.
  • While the mac and cheese bakes, make the celery ribbons: Using a vegetable peeler, peel the backs of the celery stalks lengthwise into ribbons. Transfer the ribbons to a large bowl filled with ice water and let sit for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
  • Drizzle the mac and cheese with more Frank's® RedHot® Buffalo Wings Sauce and the ranch dressing, then top with the crumbled blue cheese, red onion, scallions, and celery ribbons.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your mac and cheese. Use fresh, flavorful cheese, and high-quality chicken wings.
  • Don't overcook the chicken wings. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the wings until they are just cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Make sure the cheese sauce is smooth and creamy. Use a roux to thicken the sauce, and add the cheese slowly, stirring constantly. If the sauce is too thick, add a little milk or cream.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. You can add different spices to the chicken wings, or different types of cheese to the mac and cheese. You can also add other ingredients, such as bacon, vegetables, or hot sauce.

Conclusion:

Annmarie's Buffalo Chicken Wing Mac and Cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. With its creamy cheese sauce, tender chicken wings, and crispy breadcrumb topping, this mac and cheese is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
