Recipe Summary Shrimp Mac And Cheese

This macaroni and cheese takes on a subtle coastal flair with the addition of shrimp. I used cooked salad shrimp as I found the size comparable to the elbow macaroni.

Ingredients | Chorizo Mac And Cheese Sunday Brunch

½ cup elbow macaroni

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

¾ cup 1% milk

½ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

1 ½ tablespoons sour cream

½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning

1 cup frozen salad shrimp

2 tablespoons panko bread crumbs (Optional)

2 tablespoons shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Pour 5 cups water into a saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Add macaroni and boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour until a smooth paste is formed. Slowly pour in milk, stirring to incorporate. Add 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, sour cream, and Cajun seasoning. Drain macaroni and stir into the sauce. Add frozen shrimp and stir to combine.

Pour macaroni mixture into an oval au gratin dish. Top with panko bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and golden, about 20 minutes.
