Total Time 1 hours 25 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 10 minutes

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

cooking spray
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons garlic powder, or to taste, divided
1 (16 ounce) package macaroni
½ cup butter, divided
¼ cup all-purpose flour
4 cups whole milk
1 pound Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 sleeves buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®), crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Cook chicken in skillet until no longer pink in the center, 5 to 7 minutes; season with 1 tablespoon garlic powder and transfer to a baking dish.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes; drain and mix with chicken in the baking dish.
  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook flour in melted butter until the flour is cooked and the mixture forms a roux, about 5 minutes. Stream milk into the pot while stirring to mix with the roux completely; cook until just about simmering, about 5 minutes more. Add Cheddar cheese in small amounts to the sauce and stir to melt completely before adding the next portion; cook and stir until thick and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the sauce over the chicken and macaroni; stir to coat.
  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in the skillet in which you cooked the chicken over medium heat. Stir remaining tablespoon garlic powder into the melted butter; cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir crushed crackers into the butter mixture to coat; spread over the chicken and macaroni mixture in the baking dish.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the topping is crispy, 35 to 45 minutes.

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Butter a 1 1/2-quart gratin or baking dish. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente, about 11 minutes. Drain, run under cold water, and drain again. Transfer to a large bowl. In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and a pinch of salt, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, about 10 minutes Add onion to pasta and stir to combine. Add mozzarella, chicken, 2/3 cup Parmesan, and rosemary; stir to combine. In a medium heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter. Add flour and cook over low heat, whisking, for 3 minutes. Add hot milk, whisking vigorously, then add garlic and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Bring mixture to a simmer, whisking; then reduce heat and gently simmer, whisking occasionally, until béchamel is thickened (the sauce should thickly coat the back of a spoon), about 10 minutes. Discard garlic before adding béchamel to pasta, season with pepper, and stir. Transfer into baking dish and smooth top. Sprinkle with remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan and more pepper. Bake until bubbling and golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving.
