Step 1

In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat until melted. Add in onions and garlic and cook until softened. Season with salt.

Step 2

Add in elbows and stir to coat.

Step 3

Add in about 1/3 of the chicken stock and cook over medium heat, stirring until most of the liquid is evaporated.

Step 4

Repeat this process until the pasta is al dente and there is a bit of liquid remaining in the pan. You want to maintain a simmer (not a full boil) through this process so that the pasta cooks gently and all the liquid doesn’t cook off without the pasta being able to absorb it and cook through.

Step 5

Reduce heat to low and stir in cheeses until fully melted. Stir in chipotles and adobo.

Step 6

Season to taste with salt.

Step 7

Stir in cream. **

Step 8

Pour into a small greased baking dish and top with the 1/4 cup extra cheddar and monterey cheeses. Sprinkle on panko.

Step 9

Turn on broiler to high. Place mac and cheese under the broiler and broil until golden, about 5 minutes. Keep an eye on it!

Step 10

Enjoy!
