This is one of the most popular dishes at Rugby in Georgetown from Zan and Than McCoy, contestants on NBC's The Chopping Block. "This mac 'n chicken is out of bounds and fairly effortless," the brothers say. "Great eats!
Ingredients
1 tbsp. unsalted butter
1/2 chicken breast
2 tbsp. green scallion
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 pinch salt and pepper
1/4 c. brandy
1/2 c. medium pasta shells
1 tbsp. flour
3/4 c. heavy whipping cream
1/2 c. white cheddar cheese
1/2 c. smoked Gouda cheese
1/2 c. Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. In large saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter until pan begins to smoke. Add the cubed chicken breast and sauté. As the chicken begins to brown, add chopped scallions, cayenne, nutmeg, salt, and pepper and sauté for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove from flame (if using gas burner) and add brandy. Put back on burner and let reduce briefly (if using gas burner, flambé until alcohol is fully burned off). Add pasta and flour and toss until flour is fully integrated into butter and brandy.
Add cream and sauté until cream reduces and pasta and chicken are thick and creamy. Pour creamy pasta into bowl and toss in chunks of cheddar and Gouda cheese and toss with pasta and cream. Top with Parmesan cheese and place in oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until Parmesan is a crisp golden brown and cheese is melted.
