Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounce elbow macaroni (or penne, rigatoni, ziti)
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound chicken breasts (skinless and boneless, cut in small pieces)
1 medium onion (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1 teaspoon dried mustard
1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
2 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)

  • In the same skillet add the onions and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until aromatic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture and stir. Cook for another minute. Whisk in the milk and dried mustard. Add the mozzarella, cheddar cheese and stir it in. Continue to cook until the cheese has melted.
  • Add the chicken and pasta to the skillet and stir everything together. Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary with salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve garnished with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
