For an extra layer of flavor, sauté a clove or two of minced garlic with the onions, celery, and bell pepper. Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as mozzarella, provolone, or Parmesan, for the Cheddar. If you don't have rotisserie chicken, you can use leftover cooked chicken or quickly poach 2-3 chicken breasts and shred them. To prevent the pasta from drying out, you can add a splash of chicken broth or milk to the sauce before baking.

Oct 21, 2024Next time I'll use a different kind of cheese on top, maybe mozzarella for a stretchier melt.
