Description

Creamy and supremely cheesy, Chicken and Broccoli Mac and Cheese can be put on your table in just 30 minutes! Chunks of chicken and broccoli jazz up this dinner-time favorite!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Rotini Pasta
  • 1 pound Frozen Broccoli Florets
  • 2 whole Rotisserie Chicken Breasts, Chopped
  • 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • ¼ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Milk
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth
  • 3 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt

Preparation

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add rotini noodles and cook according to package directions. Once cooked, drain and set aside. While the pasta cooks, microwave frozen broccoli according to package directions. Set aside once heated through.

Next, melt butter over medium-low heat in a large skillet. Once melted, add flour and whisk until fully combined. Allow flour to cook for 1–2 minutes, whisking frequently. Add in 1 cup of milk, whisking until mixture has thickened and no lumps remain. Add remaining 1 cup of milk and chicken broth and whisk until well combined. Reduce heat to low and add cheese and all spices to the sauce, whisking until cheese has melted. Once melted, toss prepared pasta, broccoli and chicken into the skillet and mix until the cheese sauce covers all of the ingredients. Serve warm.
