BAKED BUFFALO CHICKEN MAC AND CHEESE
This Baked Buffalo Chicken Mac and Cheese recipe is the ultimate rendition of the beloved cheesy casserole. Two kinds of cheese melt together in a spicy, creamy sauce. Meanwhile a kicked up crust of panko, crumbled blue cheese, garlic, and Buffalo sauce takes things up a notch. You'll never need another buffalo mac and cheese recipe after trying this one!

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to boil. Add salt and the pasta, and cook until just shy of al dente, about half as long as the box suggests (it will continue cooking in the oven). Drain and set aside.
- In a small saucepan, heat the hot sauce and 2 tablespoons butter, and swirl together to incorporate. Reserve ¼ cup of the buffalo sauce and set aside. Add the remaining sauce to the shredded chicken and mix well. Set aside until needed.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Over medium-high heat, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in the same pot used to boil the pasta. Add the flour to make a roux and whisk until it is nice and smooth. Cook for a couple minutes to cook out the raw flour flavor, but do not allow the roux to brown.
- Add the hot milk a little at a time, whisking in between each addition, until all of it has been added. Cook, constantly whisking, about 7 to 10 more minutes on medium heat until thickened, allowing it to bubble and simmer, but not come up to a full boil. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and whisk in the shredded cheeses, a little at a time until completely combined.
- Once the cheeses are all combined and melted, add the pasta and stir to coat. It will be very saucy. Fold in the celery and shredded buffalo chicken.
- Pour the pasta mixture into a greased 3-quart shallow baking dish. Drizzle ½ of the reserved buffalo sauce over the top.
- Add ½ cup of the panko to a small mixing bowl and add the garlic and blue cheese. Use your fingers to cut the blue cheese chunks into the panko as if you're making biscuits, yielding a mixture of pea-sized blue cheese/panko chunks. Add the remaining buffalo sauce and combine. Crumble the mixture over the top of the casserole.
- In the same small mixing bowl, add the remaining panko and olive oil and mix to combine. Distribute the panko mixture over the pasta. You now have a double crust of blue cheese-buffalo-panko crumbs, and regular panko crumbs.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until nice and bubbly, and golden brown. Allow the pasta to rest for about 10 to 15 minutes before serving, as it will be extremely hot and also need a few minutes to set.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the chicken in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Toss with the hot sauce, celery salt, 4 tablespoons melted butter and black pepper to taste. Bake until the chicken is tender and cooked through, about 30 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
- Shred the chicken and transfer to a medium bowl, along with any juices from the baking dish. Cover loosely with plastic wrap, and set aside. Wipe out the baking dish with a paper towel and brush with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 6 tablespoons butter. Add the panko and cayenne and season with some salt. Saute until deeply golden, stirring constantly, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the thyme. Stir to combine and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it generously. Add the pasta and cook to slightly less than al dente, about 3 minutes less than the package instructions. Drain.
- In a medium pot over medium heat, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. When the foaming subsides, add the celery and onion. Cook until softened, 4 minutes. Add the flour and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring, 1 minute. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously, and bring to a simmer. Add the Cheddar, gruyere and Parmigiano-Reggiano and whisk until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the pasta to the cheese sauce and stir to coat evenly. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Top with the chicken mixture and half of the blue cheese. Sprinkle with the breadcrumbs and bake until bubbling around the edges and completely warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Top with the remaining crumbles of blue cheese and celery leaves. Serve immediately.

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!
