Creamy, Spicy Chicken Mac and Cheese in 25 minutes! SO easy to make, PACKED with protein, calorie friendly and great for meal prep.??
–
Ingredients:
• 3-4 chicken breast, cubed (approx. 500g)
• 2 tsp olive oil
• Season with salt, pepper, paprika, oregano and garlic powder
• 1 cup any milk (we used 1%)
• 1/3 cup light or fat free cream cheese
• 1/3 cup low fat cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
• 3 tbsp any hot sauce
• 170g cooked macaroni
• optional: cilantro or parsley
–
Notes:
• make sure to cook your sauce on low heat, and give it some time to thicken. If you’d like to speed up the process, add 1 tsp of flour! Also, adding 1/3 cup pasta water to your sauce can also help with the sauce sticking to your macaroni.
• use a buffalo hot sauce for a “buffalo chicken mac and cheese!”!
• double the measurements for 6 total servings for the entire week as a meal prep!
