Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 2 cups penne pasta

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup 1% milk

  • ½ cup heavy cream

  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg

  • 1 cup cubed rotisserie chicken

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.

  2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat and cook garlic for 1 minute. Whisk in flour until a paste forms. Pour in milk and cream, whisking continuously until smooth. Stir in 3/4 of the Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and nutmeg. Add drained penne pasta and cooked chicken; stir to combine. Pour mixture into a casserole dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, 10 to 12 minutes.
