Recipe Summary Creole Shrimp Mac And Cheese

Think outside the blue box and make a grown-up version of mac and cheese instead. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.

Ingredients | Corner Bakery Mac And Cheese Calories

1 (8 ounce) box elbow macaroni

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

12 ounces uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 teaspoons Creole seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's®)

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups half-and-half

1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1 tablespoon Creole mustard

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.

While macaroni is cooking, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp; sprinkle with Creole seasoning. Cook, stirring continually, for 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until shrimp is pink, about 2 minutes. Turn off heat.

Drain macaroni and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking; set aside. Return the pasta pot to the stove and melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until dissolved, about 2 minutes. Add half-and-half; heat for 3 minutes.

Whisk in cheeses until melted, about 5 minutes. Add mustard; cook for 2 minutes. Turn off heat.

Add reserved macaroni and shrimp. Stir until heated through. Serve immediately.

Substitute pepper Jack cheese for the Monterey for extra kick.
