Firecracker Shrimp Macaroni And Cheese Food

FIRECRACKER SHRIMP MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• At least 30 minutes before you're ready to cook, pour the Texas Pete over the shrimp in a medium sized bowl, cover, and place in the fridge to marinate. The longer the shrimp sits in the sauce, the spicier it will be.
• Combine the panko bread crumbs, crushed red pepper, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and kosher salt in a food processor OR cut the ingredients together with a knife.
• Preheat the oven to 350 and lightly oil a baking sheet.
• Dredge the marinated shrimp in the bread crumb mixture and place on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
• Bake for about 15 minutes (shrimp will be pink, breading will be crisp).
• While the shrimp cooks, bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions.
• Whisk the cornstarch into the cold milk and then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat stirring constantly and melt the butter in the liquid. Stir in the cheese, keep stirring until it's all melted into a happy sauce.
• Pour over the cooked pasta and toss to coat. Cover the macaroni & cheese with the crispy cooked shrimp and garnish with the green onions.
