Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

cooking spray
1 ½ cups elbow macaroni
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
⅓ cup dill pickle relish, well drained
¼ cup minced onion
1 teaspoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 slice bread
1 teaspoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • 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 7 minutes, making sure not to overcook. Drain and set aside.
  • While the macaroni is cooking, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat in a large saucepan. Blend in flour and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Mix in Cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese; stir until melted. Add dill pickle relish, onion, Sriracha sauce, salt, and pepper to cheese mixture. Stir in cooked macaroni. Pour mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
  • Butter both sides of bread and tear into large pieces. Blend in a food processor or electric blender until you have crumbs. Spread on top of casserole.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and browned on top, about 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheese. The better the cheese, the better the macaroni and cheese will be.
  • Don't overcook the macaroni. It should be al dente, not mushy.
  • Don't add all of the milk at once. Add it gradually, stirring constantly, until the desired consistency is reached.
  • Season the macaroni and cheese to taste. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all good choices.
  • For a crispier topping, broil the macaroni and cheese for a few minutes before serving.
  • Serve the macaroni and cheese immediately. It's best when it's hot and gooey.
