Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoon oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • 3/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 4 cups macaroni
  • 5 cups milk
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups cheese

Instruction

  • Rub chicken with oil and season with salt and pepper. Add chicken breasts to a large pot and cook over medium-high heat for 15-20 minutes until cooked through (165 degrees F), flipping once. Remove to a cutting board and slice thinly. Toss with barbecue sauce and set aside, keeping warm while you make the macaroni.
  • In a large pot, combine macaroni, milk and salt. Over medium-high heat (you don't want it too high, because milk will scald and leave a bitter flavour), bring the milk to a simmer, stirring frequently. Reduce to medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, for 10-15 minutes until noodles are cooked and milk is thickened (if sauce is thick before pasta is cooked, slowly add in a little bit more milk). Stir in cheese.
  • Spread macaroni and cheese into serving dish and top with BBQ chicken. Garnish with extra cheese and green onions if desired.
