Preparation – 10 minutes
Fill a large saucepan with water and two stock cubes and bring to a boil. Cook the macaroni in the boiling water, and drain as soon as it is al dente.
Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic cloves. Remove any excess fat and sinew from the chicken breasts and cut them into cubes.
Finishing the chicken macaroni cheese – 20 minutes
Heat some olive oil in a large frying pan and fry the chicken cubes in it until they are golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a bowl and reheat the large frying pan.
Melt the butter in the frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic for a few minutes. Add the flour in one go and stir well. Let the roux cook for a few minutes to remove the floury taste.
Gradually add the milk and mix with a whisk until smooth. Let it simmer gently for a few minutes. Stir in both types of grated cheese. Once the cheese has melted, return the fried chicken to the pan.
Stir in the macaroni and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Enjoy your dinner!
