Tuscan Chicken Mac And Cheese (ONE POT, STOVE TOP)

Without baby spinach, with half the tomatoes, a bit more milk, and water instead of stock

I used the BelGioioso Asiago Romano Parmesan Salad Blend and Sargento Mozzarella. For my Chicken I used Kinders The Blend along with Tastedully Simple Dried Tomato and Garlic pesto mix and put my chicken tenderloins in the air fryer and the cubed and added to the dish after it was finished. Also used Silk Almond milk almond with Raos noodles. Didn't have Italian herb so I used Herb de Provence.

A little bland. I used some of the oil from the Sundried Tomatoes when cooking the chicken. I would change the cheese a little. Its the correct amount just made it a little bland. I might try Smoked Gouda in place of Mozzarella, 1/2c of Parmesan instead of 3/4c, and add the extra 1/4cup to the cheddar.

I substituted a can of diced tomatoes instead of the sun dried ones and substituted some cheeses with what I had in my fridge but it still turned out great! It was a big hit

Really good! I added additional water/broth/milk (combined extra of 1/2- 1 c) and cooked noodles longer than suggested

Makes SO much- definitely half or even quarter the recipe. Next time, I'll just fresh tomatoes- my family didn't like the sun-dried.

the sundried tomatoes were too sweet, maybe just use fresh next time

I added way too much cheese. Very rich but a great comfort meal that comes together within an hour

Really nice! Filling and delicious, especially with the chicken added in. Will be making this again.

The second part of milk+cream was a little too much for the given pasta ratio, if you follow the recipe add more pasta. a little hit of mustard in the sauce makes it really tasty when eaten cold

Soooo freakin good! I'm obsessed, I couldn't get enough of it. I'll definitely be making it again.

This dish is fantastic if you like tuscan style dishes. The mixture of onion, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and spinach in a white wine reduction adds so much flavor you really don't need a lot of cheese. But who doesn't want the cheese?

Need more chicken than it calls for

Absolutely delicious and so easy to make Honestly could experiment with putting less cheese or none at all as the sauce is amazing even wo it. Next time I'll try putting 1/4 cup parm and 1/3 medium cheddar, also 2 cups of spinach and increase pasta to 1lbs

Quite impressed with this recipe. I used thick-cut bacon as opposed to chicken breast, as you can see in the pic. I do not regret this decision. I also mixed in some fresh basil we had on hand with the spinach. I would err on the side of caution when cooking your pasta, since I cooked mine the recommended 10 minutes and it turned out slightly undercooked. A bit time consuming, but I'll be making this one again for sure.

Added mushrooms

My kids really enjoyed this meal!!!

Very tasty

Trust the process

Really lovely recipe, followed exactly, and tasted great.

Needs more flavour but kids went back for seconds- so was a bit of a hit

Was thick so I added way more heavy cream/milk. Super filling.

Great flavor yet so unhealthy

Delicious and easy! Halved the tomatoes but shouldn’t have. We would do a little less cheese next time surprisingly. But really good overall!

Definitely took more than 30 minutes. It was good.

Didn’t use oil in tomatoes. Used reduced fat milk. Baked chicken separately in oven.

Bacon would have made it even better

Used cavatappi pasta instead. Super easy and flavorful! Flavors soak in and make for excellent leftovers. Just add a little milk or chicken broth to keep sauce from being too thick.

This was good but not like your standard Mac and cheese consistency. Will definitely make again.

This was SO good. I added extra veggies and it did not impair flavor. The whole family ate it up.

Sooo Yummy

It wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. Might make it again but with more cheddar instead of mozzarella and parmesan.

Added Capsicums instead of sun-dried tomato.

This dish is amazing. I personally left out the spinach but it's still amazing. The directions are spot on and easy to follow. I am definetly saving this to make again.

It was okay but looked like dog vomit.

Amazing! Much better without the tomato strips

It was ok. The sun-dried tomatoes were a nice addition but I think you should add a few more spices to make bring out the flavors more.

I doubled the ingredients and cooked the pasta first 👌

It was OK I should've cooked the pasta first it kept drying out, not as creamy as I would've liked but tasteful

Me and the husband marinated the chicken and then Smoked it instead of completely following instructions and it was amazing.

Omg! I think this is the best meal I've made on here by far! Absolutely amazing!

Add at least double the seasoning

This is one of the best chicken recipes I've tried. I will definitely be making it again!

The noodles didn't get soft enough for me but my kids had 0 complaints.

Delicious!

Less italian seasoning for my taste. Very thick. Meh.

My family & I absolutely enjoyed this dish. Very fun to make and tons of left overs even after seconds. Worth the time and money.

I really enjoyed this!

Too much onion.

Super good,

Will try cooking the noodles separately next time vs in the sauce

Omg amazing! Did with pig instead of chicken but it turned out amazing. At first I thought it wasn’t going to work because the sauce wasn’t turning right, bet then I added the cheese and wow. Looks amazing, taste is delicious and I’m definitely gonna make it again. (I did made the pasta first but it still worked)

I couldn't get a lot of ingredients but it was still very good! And even good when reheated.

So easy to make. The while family really raved about how good it tasted. A must try

An amazing recipe! I made it as a university student using extra broth instead of white wine to save some money. Overall it is really affordable and it makes lots of leftovers to freeze for when I don't have time to cook.

Needed some tweaks, cook the macaroni separately

4/5

Generally wasn't a fan of the flavor. I didn't make the sauce thin enough.

It was good. Loved the flavors. Cheesy and delicious.

Took a lot longer to cook than 30 minutes and required more chicken broth for liquid, as the elbows weren't able to cook in what the recipe called for. The flavor wasn't the worse that I've tasted before, but it wasn't the greatest, neither. I wasn't a fan of how dry it all was once it came together. Next time, I'll definitely be cooking the pasta separately and then adding it back to the skillet. As is, I would give it a 5 out of 10, wouldn't rave about it for a recommendation to anyone else to cook.

Amazing

Made it today and was so surprised it was so yummy and creamy! Will definitely make it again

How much pasta is needed? The recipe ingredients list is confusing. Is it 3 dry cups, 300 g ( which is not 3 cups), or the other amount listed on the same line?! Very confusing.

Did add extra spice and I pre cooked the pasta before adding to dish.

This was amazing, and my kids absolutely loved it. I had cut up the chicken and had it marinating in the salt, pepper, and paprika overnight, and it was delicious. Even my super picky daughter loved it. Definitely will make it again and share the recipe with everyone.

Delicious! My husband's new favourite dish! 😂😍

Really enjoyed this version of "Marry Me Chicken" - the sauce was very light (I used milk). I also cooked the macaroni separately then poured it all into the sauce. Not enough chicken though. Needed at least 6 chicken breast halves - 1 breaststroke per person.

I think it would have been just as good without the cheese. The sundried tomato oil had a fantastic flavor, so it would have been great without the cheese and still creamy. I ended up grilling the chicken, which made cooking the sauce and noodles faster as I could do both at the same time. Definitely a make again

Cut chicken into bite-sized first ahead of time. Took longer than expected. Didn't add the tomato strips.

It was a one-time hit for my family. I think there were too many sun-dried tomatoes for them. I love it.

Easy and delicious

Add red pepper spice

This was amazing! I used 2 cups of chicken broth and then 2 cups of heavy cream and skipped the wine. I cooked the pasta noodles separately so I had plenty of sauce left. It doesn’t quite taste like Mac and cheese but I liked it!

Turned out a little different looking but it definitely tastes good!

Needs more seasoning (salt & pepper.)

Recommend speciality cheese that’s good for Mac and cheese.

This was very good! It was pretty easy to make and look forward to making it again. There isn't anything I'd change from the recipe.

Amazing. Whole family loved it ("Damn, Dad, what did you put in this?". Cheated on the one pot idea by frying the chicken in a gridle pan then slicing and adding to the pasta. Took me way more than 30 mins but super tasty. Served ourselves too much but ate it all!

Mac and cheese needed to be cooked before being made, not cooked with the sauce

It was okay. Sort of bland and definitely quite thick as others mentioned. I ended up adding maybe an extra cup of water to thin it out some & it was still thick. Didn’t have same bite my normal homemade Mac and cheese has. Wouldn’t make again. Very heavy. Took an hour or more to make.

It was fine

I think I over cooked it, it was not creamy enough for my liking. The flavors were okay, I would say 50/50. My one kids loves it the other hates it and I don't think I would make it again.

Less sauce, cook pasta longer

It was very time-consuming but super yummy.

I added a little more of the spices for extra flavor and used heavy cream.

This was ok. I cut the flour to 2 tbs based on the comments but it was still thick so it could be cut down to 1. The taste is good but not sure it's something I'll put on heavy rotation.

Pasta needed longer to cook. I added extra chicken broth so the sauce didn’t get too thick and there was enough moisture to cook the pasta. The jar of sun dried tomatoes I had was only 7 ounces and it was plenty. Didn’t measure cheese exactly, used more than called for, maybe 1/2 cup extra in total. Will make again.

I love Tuscan anything. So, naturally, I love this Mac and cheese. I seasoned it a bit heavier than it said to, and we loved it. Everyone ate theirs and had more! Would also be good with shrimp or scallops.

I loved it. So creamy and tasty. Would definitely recommend 👌

It was amazing

Family loved

Easy and yummy

Really good but definitely not a 30 minute dish. Plan an hour start to finish.

I had to add a lot of extra chicken croth at the end but it was delicious!

I used frozen chopped spinach but only use about a 1/3 of a small bag, it will be way too much to use more then that!

Just did not love the flavor on the Mac and cheese. I know it’s Mac and cheese but it was way too heavy and bland at the same time. I also should’ve guessed it wouldn’t be my jam, I’m not into super creamy foods.

Wouldnt put the semi sundried toms in next time and probably make way with the spinach. I'll add mushrooms and more herbs and spices next time.

We used left over chicken breasts from last night, otherwise followed to a T. The sauce was too thick before the noodles were even cooked. I'd guess I used another 2-3 cups in addition to the extra 1/2 included in recipe. The end result is delightful. We will definitely make again!

Personally I thinks it's a good mac and cheese recipe. I usually make baked mac and cheese so this was a nice change. Next time I think I would add more pasta there's was just so much sauce it almost felt like a chowder. Would make again

It's delicious! I suggest adding a little extra chicken broth, so instead of 2 cups, perhaps 2 1/2 cups. Still came out extremely thick. The recipe calls for 3 cups of milk, but in the instructions it says to use 2 1/2 cups as well. PLEASE make sure you properly measure out 300g of pasta. I substituted elbow for radiatori and it came out incredibly.

This a recipe with more ingredients than I typically go for. Super easy though! I added some bacon

This dish was delicious!

Amazing! I added a tbs of Cayenne pepper an extra onion and a yellow pepper, used 1cal spray instead of butter and oil and it was restaurant quality haha! Now a weekly dish in our household 😋

Was pretty great Added more kinds of cheese and seashell shaped pasta cause i didn't have smaller ones so yay

Your website is broken. The lengths I had to go to to get screenshots for the recipe is obscene. I had to drag both fingers so that it didn't take me back to the top every time I scrolled. Then I'd get half way down and accidently stop for half a second and start over because it took me to the top. It took me 30 minutes just to GET the recipe. Not a time saver.

Fantastic

This recipe was very good! Lots of flavor. My family LOVED it. The next time we make it, we might try it with ground beef!

I made a roux separately and cooked everything else in one pot, adding the Roux last. It turned out fantastically. Even my picky eater loved it.

Delicious pasta dish to mix up your routine. We loved it and will make it again. If you use a whole box of macaroni, you will probably need to double your milk and chicken broth. We just added them as we saw fit, and it worked out!

next time will try with breadcrumbs!

I would have liked the instructions to have been more clear

This was really good. I used Banza chickpea elbows for more protein. I used wayyyy less sun dried tomatoes than it called for. Also a lot less mozzarella. Next time I will omit the spinach. It didn't add much to the dish.

Easy and delicious

This was amazing 👏 love it

So delicious. Added bacon and extra spices

It was okay. I liked the chicken spices

Used sundried tomato pesto instead of jarred ones. Finished in the oven for the crispiness. Super comforting and good

Simple recipe, one pan. VERRRRRRRY cheesy and thick, so be prepared to thin out with more milk or extra chicken broth.

Chicken was ok. We could make our own and eat on side. Also could make less amount. Good for leftovers though.

Kids weren't huge fans

Really nice flavors. Used ground chicken instead and it turned out really good.

Super cheesey and was a hit with the whole family

Not a fan.

I didn't one pot it. I boiled my pasta after I prepared the chicken. I added some of my own cooking style with this one, but for the most part I followed the recipe. It is so good!!

We used 16oz of macaroni, 4 cups of milk, and 2 1/2 cups of chicken broth. We'll definitely be using 1/2 cup of white wine next time. Also used equal parts of all the cheeses.

Probably wouldn’t add sundried tomato’s next time, only for the fact that I don’t love tomato’s but I wanted to try them in the recipe! Next time I’ll just leave them out, but if you like them I bet it would be fine!!

I ran out of lemons and I think a little lemon juice would've been the perfect finishing touch! was lovely without but super rich :)

Tasted good and I only needed one pot to make everything which I love. I would recommend adding more chicken stock to ensure that the elbow pasta cooks well and doesn't get burn.

This is one of my favorite ways to make macaroni. If you are looking to make it a little healthier/fewer carbs, substitute some or all of the macaroni noodles with cauliflower. You won't be able to taste the difference.

I would recommend adding a little chicken stock every few minutes and stir while the macaroni cooks so it doesn't burn

So delicious! My family loved it.

It tasted great. Didn’t have sun dried tomatoes so I used one table spoon of harissa. And you don’t need that much cheese. Just add a handful at a time.

Don't add too much wine. Makes the whole thing vinagary- I added Frank's hot sauce at the end to make it spicy and was lovely

Added some crushed red pepper flakes and it was delicious and super easy to make. Great week night dinner.

It's very tasty. I will make it again

Season to taste and it’s pretty good!

It needed more liquid to make the pasta nice and cooked. But the sauce is too creamy and calorie loaded for my taste. If I were ro repeat the recipe, I would add more veggies.

It took way more liquid and way longer to cook. We ended up adding an addition 3-4 cups of liquid and baking it to get the noodles to cook. Would recommend cooking the noodles ahead of time.

This was SO good, even my picky 8 year old liked it. Did take quite a bit to cook, but worth it. I added in rosemary, and used almond milk instead. Didn't have to use more milk than it called for, as others were saying. I will say, watch the pasta like a hawk after you put it in, it gets soft quickly! I also cooked my chicken towards the end, in a separate pan.

Taste was great, too a while to cook.

My family loved it! Took a little extra time and more milk for the noodles to cook so I did have to use more seasoning then recipe stated.

Was delish! Ended up using quite a bit more milk than it called for but I do have a really old gas oven and it's hard to keep it at a low temp for proper simmering.

Just finished making this. It is soooo tasty, easy recipe to follow, and I would just like to mention that out of all other mac'n'cheese recipesi had tried to make. This is the only one the cheese coopersted.

Next time I'll remember to buy milk before 😅 Still good enough to make again!

yeah, I think this is what heaven feels like

Good kids approved!!

It was a hit with my 7 year old as well as the adult guests I cooked it for - they all went back for seconds! I used chicken breasts and it was not dry. Next time will use even more garlic, as we love garlic and the taste was subtle. Will make again!

In the future keep chicken warm in oven and cook pasta for longer

Took a while to make but it tasted good. Even my very fussy 10 year old liked it. I added a bit more paprika than was called for. Could easily use less sun-dried tomatoes if you don't like them that much.

THIS IS AMAZING. I LOVE IT ❤️ It was worth almost chopping my finger off :)

Took way longer to cook than the recipe said. Before adding the cheese it was too thick and needed more liquid. After adding the cheese it was too thick again. Took about an additional cup of broth and another 1-1.5 cups of milk in total. Taste was good, but not worth it for the amount of effort.

Really good recipe

I used drier sun-dried tomatoes instead as that is what I had as well as some rosemary as I didn't have dried parsley. Turned out REALLY good. Highly recommend

Amazing recipe. One note: once the macaroni is in, stir it WAY more frequently than you think you should. Otherwise it gets stuck to the bottom.

Needed to cool the macaroni longer to make tender.

Bit of a spaghetti sauce flavor but other than that it was good. I also would probably prefer diced chicken instead of cut into strips.

this was delicious. cheesy and thick and full of flavor! for mine i added in mushrooms bacon bits and red chilli flakes (just the right amounts of spice) and i also left out the cheddar cheese. now i used the exact amount of cheese via the recipe and for me it was a little to much but still good. next time i would only do less cheese :) amazing recipe it was so easy to make

Great flavor. Had to add above recommended milk chicken stock as it thickened too quickly for me even though I had the setting on low.

Great. Reminds me of trips to Estes Park as a kid due to a restaurant that sense shut down. Skipped onion an tomato due to a friends texture issue.

She’s thick, take that into consideration.

A+++++ This so so good

Great recipe and was super easy and straight forward to make. I cooked the chicken before hand and added it at the end once the mac was finished. This receipe had a little too much garlic for me so I may tone that back in the future. All in all though this was a great recipe! 👍

Changed it a bit, but it was wonderful! Will definitely make it again!

Are very hearty. Cooked as per recipe could’ve used a little more liquid. It’s pretty thick. Thinking about adding bacon next time. It probably enough for six people.

Super delicious recipe. Will keep it on rotation.

I cooked the chicken in the air fryer. Delicious meal, easy to make.

Absolutely delicious!! Super easy as well and nice one-pot for easy cleanup

I used a sundried tomato bruschetta (accidently bought not realizing it wasn't sundried tomatoes in oil only) and it turned out great. Took longer than 30 min. It reheated well.

Omg make it with the smoked paprika 🤤🤤🤤🤤 my husband and I also added tapatio to ours for a little kick

This recipe is absolutely incredible on the flavor front. The second time I made it I cooked the chicken separately and not in the pot because it just took way too long the way that the recipe says to do it. But it turned out just as well if not better

Added more seasoning than it called for. I also added some better than bouillon chicken seasoning to up the flavor.

Really good. Toddler loved it

Added some breadcrumbs for extra texture.

Really good! My noodles required a longer amount of time to cook and also more milk. Also, I only added half of a jar of sun dried tomatoes. I think a full 9oz is way too much.

Pretty good. It was missing something, but we haven’t quite figured out what yet

This was beautiful to make and the smells made you hungry. Eaten by all 5 of my kids and adults 🙂

I used regular tomato (diced) instead of the sundried ones, but it still came out great. I also used a fiesta cheese blend instead of Mozzarella, parmesan and cheddar. I would suggest making the chicken last, so it is as hot as possible. I had to heat mine on the skillet again before serving. Make sure you add extra seasonings than instructed, it is bland otherwise. (Trust your judgement on flavor)

Added sweet peppers instead of sun-dried tomatoes.

A little time consuming but not bad. Tastes pretty good. I love the sundriedvtomstoes!

Really good! I used chicken tenders instead of breasts, and they weren't dry at all. But next time, I would use cooked pasta and make the cheese sauce separate; I'd also use less cheese.

It just wasn't appetizing

Wonderful recipe! And makes PLENTY! I'll finish whats left today for lunch. Even the leftovers (to me) are just as tasty as the night I cooked it. The Hubs (who wont eat from recipes I find online) scarfed down a few bowls and said "Add this to the keep pile please!" #winning

The sauce was a bit too liquify for my taste and it had a bit of acidity that I wasn’t a huge fan of but my husband loved

Good stuff! Easy recipe! Only thing I would want to improve is how soft the chicken is. Cooked perfectly through, but once cut into strips and combined with the rest of the dish, the chicken was really tough to chew through in comparison to everything else. Not sure why. I'd recommend you take whatever steps you feel are appropriate to soften it up. Maybe cut into smaller pieces.

I was a few items short and looking for a quick meal my kids would like. Followed the instructions, minus the things I didn't have in my cabinets. I did throw in all kinds of herbs and spices. It was a hit!

Really tasty and only used a single pot

I always add more seasoning, but this is one of my favorite recipes 😋

Very good! I think that there needs to be more info on cooking the chicken.

We blended the spinach and used fresh tomatoes. Great recipe! In hindsight maybe use more Creme Fraiche or something.

Need to cook pasta longer

Very good! Hubby even likes it.

Good flavor, next time I will add some chili flakes for an added zest.

Nice and easy one pot recipe which you can add your favourite ingredients to. I always think pasta takes a little longer than stated when cooked in the sauce, but it depends how al dente you prefer it.

I added some extra salt to the milk + broth + tomato mix, but it honestly wouldn't have even been necessary. pretty decent cooking time and not very hard :)

This was delicious! My kids had seconds and actually asked if I could make it again!

before u read: know this! I did not follow any measurements I just used the ingredients it said to, followed the steps it provided and gave the measurements to God. and I Did not add the tomatoes but I did make a roux like it said and added fresh mozzarella . subbed the chicken broth for better than bouillon roasted chicken base which I think made it 10x more tasty. Used Irish butter instead of regular butter and subbed milk or whipping cream for lactose free whole milk. It is tasty asf, I let my roommate try some and she also was like “damn that’s good asf” so if you make it know you too will know delicious flavor! Also heavy asf so be careful with the portion size on this one! Like thanksgiving heavy in a delicious way.

I used the oil from the sundried tomatoes for the initial oil on the chicken. 3 chicken breasts instead of two. There are so many different flavors going on in this meal its real good, every bite is worth celebrating. Big kid approved

This is delicious. I liked shredding the chicken and chopping the spinach.

Used rigatoni dads favorite. Everyone loved it going to make again

Heavy and rich. Can eat with only the parmesan

I made a crispy parm chicken instead of the chicken in the recipe but otherwise think this is fantastic. Added a little red bell pepper because I needed it out of my fridge and skipped the mozzarella since it doesn’t melt well. But definitely a good base recipe

Don't use mozzarella but more parmesan

I added itialian seasoning with the paprika when seasoning the chicken. Will add mushrooms to it next time I think.

Chicken was way too bland, needs more seasoning.

I changed out the sun dried tomatoes for fire roasted diced tomatoes and exchanged onion for mushrooms. I also added capers.

Chicken was dry. Work on that

Making tonight

I saw this more as a casserole. Lost the taste of Mac & Cheese

Didn't use the spinach. And used buttermilk had to add an extra 2 cups of it to cook the pasta thru , but it was very good.

It's good. Simply put. I did tweak it to appease my hubby, though. He hates chunky sauces. I took quite a few of the tomatoes out of the jar and placed them into the two cups of broth. I used an immersion blender to blend till smooth and added it the same step as where the broth was required. I also left the spinach out and steamed it on the side to add what I wanted in.

SO GOOOOD

Added tapatío to it but pretty good

No notes really, it was absolutely delicious, definitely would and will make again.

To get the pasta to cook properly without qorrying about the dairy curdling with all the heat, i have adjusted the recipe slightly, i follow the directions untill it says to add the broth. After adding the broth, i wait for it to come to a boil and add the pasta. I wait until the pasta is about half cooked, stiring only a couple times. Most of the broth should be soaked into the pasta, then add the cheese and stir it in to let it melt well. Then i add the milk/cream and continue with the directions. If i were to have problems with the pasta not cooking or soaking up too much water i would add 1/4c water, or additional broth at a time before adding the milk/cream. With this adjustment i was able to make this dish in about 40 minutes (prep and cook time total). I have made this before and had a hard time getting the pasta to cook in a reasonable amount of time, but the flavor is lovely, and i wanted this to be a week night dinner option!

Way to much cheese

Pasta needs longer to cook so up the sauce quantity because it will boil away

Cooking for 10 over here!! This is just my speed. Yum!

Yummy, and dinner take long. I was a little worried about the pasta not being cooked all the way but it worked out. Also chopped up the sun dried tomatoes a bit more. Will try to use this on Keto without the pasta. I like things saucy 😋

I baked bone in chicken thighs instead. Served them on top of the pasta and turned out delicious. Also used bagged Parmesan cheese. Would like to try freshly grated next time.

I just went through the steps and eyeballed everything as well as taste testing all the way through. Family loved it and the picky eater of the house ate a full plate.

Nice food for bulking

If you need to feed a group this is it !

My bf doesn't really like tomatoes and spinach but it got him to eat both. I did tweak it a bit. I used Lactaid milk since we are lactose intolerant. Also, I only used 6 oz of sun-dried tomatoes. I had enough left over for 3 work lunches.

Good! It's pretty rich, but tasty. I skipped cooking the sundried tomatoes (still used the oil) and added a few at the end instead. Used gluten-free penne and simmered for 10 minutes. Only needed 2 1/2 cups of milk.

Ate it too fast to take a picture, but give it 10/10, my picky toddler even plowed through it which is unusual for him, spinach chicken and all! Used the recipe as a base and did my own thing, probably added 2x the parm because we LOVE parm and actually used red instead of white wine. It's a keeper for sure!

This makes so much food! We are going to try and freeze it and see how that works! I used zucchini I stead of Spinach because that's what we had in our house and also added fresh grape tomatoes at the end...made the dish... my toddler is eating it as we speak and only said "ew gross" once...so win in my book!

halved the recipe and still made tons.

Shockingly bland for how much time goes into it

Turned out so bad I threw the entire meal away. I will never try it again, I was so disappointed. The tomatoes were too much, maybe Broccoli instead. Add the cheese in slowly, part of my problem was it was way too cheesy and I didn't know that was even possible for my own preferences

Delicious! The seasoning was perfect. Based on other comments, I expected it to be a really thick sauce. However, I ate it with a spoon and was a happy camper!

Recommend using Italian Seasonings on the chicken. I ended up using 1.75 cups (1 3/4) of heavy cream instead of milk. Other than that it's perfectly fine.

First of all the taste is really good (probably would have been even better with wine instead of broth) BUT next time I’d just boil the pasta on its own and add to the sauce. It took way longer to cook this way and left it a bit gummy. I also put a sprinkle if parmesan on top and broiled to get that bubbly brown crust. Would have added bread crumbs too if I had any. My kids think buffalo sauce could only improve it.

Very rich

I didn’t have cheddar for the extra cheese so I used Monterey Jack and it was very good. Very cheesy but in a good way. I also cooked my chicken in the air fryer so I didn’t use the extra oil in the beginning

I had to add more chicken broth and half and half so the macaroni would be cooked through. I didn't add onions. It was very good. The kids loved it. There is enough for leftovers and it's very dence meal. Would make again.

I added sauteed mushrooms, which my family loves.

Very easy. My daughter added a paprika sauce for the chicken and we ate it separately. The sauce had paprika, chicken broth and dukes mayo, she cooked it and added corn starch to thicken sauce. IT WAS AMAZING! Back to the recipe, awesome and very easy!!!My kids loved it.

Wasn't creamy enough for me, will add more milk/broth next time. Very heavy meal.

Very good flavor. A little to much cheese for my taste, but I've never eaten mac n cheese before, so maybe I just didn't expect it.

I modified it a little because of food allergies. Came out great. Kids loved it. It did take about 20 minutes to cook the macaroni instead of 10 minutes. I also cut the chicken into bite size pieces.

I cut the chicken into smaller pieces instead of strips but it was really good. I felt like there was a lot of steps but they're a lot of easy steps. Will definitely make again

I switched out the chicken for Buffalo blue cheese sausage. Very good!! I would add more cheese tho

Added bacon so good!!!!

While it turned out okay my husband and I just were not fan if this. Made my tummy feel sick while eating it. Not my favorite taste. My daughter and her boyfriend enjoyed it. U told them it was all theirs. 😁

10/10 was a hit with the whole family

I cooked my chicken in Tony's and it came out so good. My boyfriend loved it and even finished off what I couldn't. It's a definite make again for us

Definitely precook your noodles! The sauce got thick really fast and it just was way too thick/cheesy for us. I also shredded the chicken so it was hidden and my kids would eat it. They ate it but didn’t love it. Definitely worth trying though!

4/5 The was pretty good! I halved the recipe and still had plenty of leftovers.

Omitted a lot of things to make it very kid friendly. The kids asked that I make this recipe from now on

Super tasty! I used canned diced tomatoes-drained and it still tasted delicious!

I made it slightly different but still really good. I added some gouda cheese, and I had to add more milk. It was pretty thick before adding the chicken.

Needed a lot more milk! Dried up very quick. Also needed alot more seasoning of some kind. Chicken was very very bland.

I removed all salt from the recipe for my kids and the sauce was so delicious!

Very delicious! Everything is good but I needed to add more milk than in recipe because it was thick even before the pasta was cooked.

Had a hard time getting enough liquid in it to at minimum make it al dente, and would recommend adding extra chicken broth. It also made a lot of leftovers. Overall though, well spiced and filling!

I used Rotini instead of Macaroni, because that's what we had. This is SO delicious! Even my 8 year old was a fan

This was absolutely delicious - without the chicken. I made it with chicken but I found it didn’t really go well with it! So I picked the chicken out of it and ate it without - much nicer! Would definitely make again but without the chicken.

Pretty tasty. Make sure you get liquid cooked out before cheese. Pounding chicken worked good for pan frying Super easy little to clean Link 8/10 Jess 6.5

Used protein pasta to increase protein to 43g. Next time will add more milk. It was a bit dry as it cooled.

Added some extra cheese and extra milk to make it a bit creamier, but not bad! I also cut the chicken into bites rather than slices and opted out of the sun dried tomatoes since neither my boyfriend nor I are fans of tomato. Not my favorite recipe ever, but not bad!!

Definitely should add some more spices like garlic powder, paprika, adobo

This was such an easy meal, very very tasty and filling

The instructions are a bit lack luster. After you sear the chicken, garlic, and onions together, go ahead and add liquids to the pan. When those are about half reduced, add in the spinach and cheeses of your choice. More cream helps the cheese melt and creates a baked mac n cheese feel! Would also recommend adding more chicken than what's called for if you're using a whole box of pasta like I did.

I didnt use as much spinach because I don't like spinach and used a lil heavy cream in the end to help it ne more creamier. I used a lil more salt for taste but will try a different seasoning next time. My son loved it he's a toddler.

It’s an Italian delight.

This dish is doable in about an hour with no prep work and minimal dishes. Genuinely one of my favorites to make and my siblings love it, if you use chicken it’ll be closer to an hour 1/2 but we prefer jumbo shrimp and it makes it even faster 😼👌 (Chicken still comes out good it’s just harder to get the chicken moist)

Soooooo! Good! Now, I forgot until I was almost done making it that my husband doesn't care much for tomatoes, but he still enjoyed it. It was fairly simple to make, but it took me over an hour, so keep that in mind.

Use less sun dried tomatoes - it darkened the sauce and changed the flavor

Added more spices than it called for and some more cheese and it was perfect

Reheats very well! Also not 21 so I substituted wine for more chicken broth and milk

Added sliced zucchini when I added the liquid. Had some mascarpone and added that before the cheese and it added a very creamy touch

Changed it up a little bit, didn’t add the cheese and did a balsamic glaze! Amazing!

Food was good, a little boring. I had to add an extra 2 cups of liquid because it got so dry. I would make again but make some changes to try to add some more flavor

Our new favorite!!! Flavor is amazing

Really tasty dish. Prep and cooking took slightly longer than stated but was worth the wait! Will definitely make again.

Makes a lot of mac and cheese! Like 8 servings worth instead of 6. If making for 2 people, cut everything in half for sure. Delicious though!

Add more liquids

Okay, this was amazing. Obviously my kids weren’t havin’ it, mostly because of the spinach (but I also couldn’t convince them that the onions were just really big garlic pieces), but the adults loved it! We only put a handful of each for the cheese, so it wasn’t insanely cheesy, and it turned out nice and creamy. Will definitely be making again!

Pictures do not do this justice. This was one of the most delicious recipes I've tried. It has a very complete taste pallet and is out of this world. Best part its healthy. I also used whole wheat pasta. Imagine if I use protein pasta it would be even healthier.

This was not under 30 minutes at all, it took about an hour and a half. Its super creamy and delicious, but oh my god I can feel my arteries clogging as I eat it!!! I had to restart the sauce because the garlic and onions burnt in the black oil from the chicken - recommend throwing that oil away and starting again, and adding the garlic when you add the sun-dried tomatoes.

Was definitely not a 30 minute meal, but tasted great!

I added 1/2 cup of cream cheese and 1 tbsp cayenne pepper! So delicious!

Volgende keer geen lookolie meer gebruiken ipv tomatenolie en veel minder kaas.

It felt very ‘trust the process’ but very enjoyable to cook and even better to eat! Defo will be making this again - maybe next time I’d add some spice

Probably the best recipe I've ever had in this app

Made it with meatballs instead and used cream

More garlic, more smoked paprika, more cheddar. (Used 4oz cheddar and 4 oz sharp cheddar)

I switched the wine out for chicken broth, took out the tomatoes and had to add about a 1/2 cup more cream with the cheese to make it creamy but it was delicious. Definitely going into the meal rounds.

Id add more spices next time and maybe some cayenne pepper. It was okay

I didn't like it! My husband did. Not my favorite meal.

It had to be the white wine and the sun dried tomatoes that made the dish terrible. It looks absolutely delicious but looks can be deceiving. If I’d would rate this dish I’d give it a 2/10 overall. That is my honest opinion of course.

Tasty. Very rich

Way too much garlic

I tried once with "buttery chardonnay" white wine and thought it was awful. So I said, "shame on me." But this time, I got legit cooking white wine and this dish was still just uck! Too sweet!

I added chopped smoked bacon and everyone loved it.

8.2/10 - Very creamy and very filling really enjoyed this one!

Definitely not for us. It was a bit bland and the taste of the sun dried tomato oil was overpowering. The sauce ended up being a lot more than the pasta even though I followed all the measurements. Not a dish I will make again.

perfect amount of flavor!! used a little more noodles than it called for and added more milk than suggested because it cooked out very fast, perfect meal to make together for quality time

Really simple to make. Delicious comfort food. Kid loved it. Add mushrooms for alittle extra flavor.

A great recipe just wouldn't call it healthy with all the creams and cheeses. Will add this to my favorites!

Added sharp cheddar cheese and much more milk to keep it creamy 🤤👍

This was time consuming, but delicious. I used heavy cream and we all loved it. The chicken was flavorful and I will definitely make this again on nights we aren’t busy. Even my kids loved it.

It was a hit! We used dairy free ingredients and it turned out great. I had to add extra milk and cheese to make it saucier. I used large tomatoes and didn't like them but my husband loved them. 2 out of 3 kids ate it all which is a huge win in our house! Definitely add more seasoning or else it might turn out a little bland

Everything was perfect! Added extra garlic because we hate vampires in this household.

Next time I will not add in the tomatoes, and will probably chop the spinach before adding it in.

10/10 really amazing Mac N Chee. Even good as left overs. Effort is a lot, but I work make again for a special occasion.

I added all the milk at once, instead of a partial amount and then adding more if it's to thick and it was fine. Also used store brought shredded cheese and dry parmesan instead of fresh. Seems like a lot of onion and garlic, but definitely worth it! Lots of leftovers!!

I accidentally spilled my jar of italian seasoning on the floor and ended up adding kick'n chicken seasoning to the pot instead. lol It honestly was still super delicious!! Just a tad bit spicy.

One of the BEST macaroni and cheese recipes I've ever found! It. Was. DELICIOUS!!!

Too heavy for me. Maybe I did the pasta wrong

I recommend adding spices you are familiar with to the chicken to get more flavor. I also just made the pasta separately and didnt add chicken broth just the milk/halfnhalf. After it thickened added the spinach and cheese. Also use less onion. 1 whole one is too much.

Amounts were just right. Added a few more spices to the chicken to add heat.

Easy recipe with many variables in case you want to jumble it up. As others mentioned, I recommend cooking the pasta separate and letting the milk/stock mixture thicken and then adding the already cooked pasta. Took much longer too cook it in the milk mixture than it would in water. I added fresh tomatoes to the mix when I added the sun dried tomatoes. I also recommend sweating the onions first and then adding garlic as opposed to all together, I felt like if you cook it together it would result in a burnt garlic flavor.

Delicious but definitely took longer to make than expected.

Used less cheese and more milk

Nice dish. Can add some spice and other ingredients such as mushrooms. The recipe has way too much garlic for some reason. Great for kids.

Everyone loved this dish. It is easy and tasty. It is total comfort food and cooks pretty quickly. Kids loved it! Husband too!

Yum! Next time I think I'll add either some mushrooms or diced eggplant.

I used less parmesan and less garlic. I probably had to double the milk to get the pasta fully cooked. This was very good!

This was really good! Super cheesy and loved the spinach and tomatoes in it. We did think it would be good with bacon as well.

Very cheesy and tasty!

This is a one-pot dish easy and simple to make and absolutely delish, even my grandchildren loved it! Definitely will make it again. Not at all like chicken alfredo! add a side salad and a glass of wine and it's perfect.

Hot for a family who may not like the spice. My kid liked it.

Chicken alfredo, the hard way.

Soooo good! It took longer than the recipe said but it was worth the wait.

Add less cheese.

Really good! Our noodles needed a little more time to cook, so we will probably cook them separately next time to avoid over-reducing the sauce. My family also requested more chicken, but that was just a preference. If your family really likes chicken, maybe add an extra chicken breast. Definitely something we will make again!

I made it in the instant pot and it turned out great.

We enjoyed this dish! Cut the recipe down to 3 servings and still had enough for four servings. Would make this again!

I really liked it but the leftovers weren't nearly as good.

So yummy - my presentation sucks but this was really good!

My picky son really liked the chicken, but the cheese sauce was too grown up for him. Adults enjoyed it. Kinda felt like it took forever to make though.

Wow - definitely a delicious and filling meal that makes plenty to go around! We added a little bit more cheese but in general tried to stick to the recipe. It took a decent amount of time to bring everything together the first time we made it but I’m sure we could do it quicker now that we know the recipe. We will definitely be making this again.

I used shellbows in it and every one loved it !

Easier to just use pre cooked chicken

Husband said it was da bomb! I only needed 2 cups of 2% milk and it came out great.

Absolutely delicious. I doubled the seasoning and added a sprinkle of red peppers.

A little too soupy for my standards.

I made 1.5x the recipe and it turned out ok! Would have been much better with about half as many red peppers. They made the dish too sweet and imbalanced.

It was fine, not the best, but I’m glad that my mom enjoyed it immensely.

Turned out perfectly! Took me under 30 minutes. I made it a portion of 2 and substituted chicken cutlets instead of whole chicken breast. I also used 1/2 the sun dried tomatoes. A blend of white cheddar, Havarti, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese gave it that perfect umph!

Used Chicken and Roasted Garlic broth, cooked pasta separately, all dry basil, used half milk, half light cream, and no cheddar (didn't have all items on hand). Next time will use sharp cheddar and fresh basil as flavour was just slightly lacking. Otherwise yummy and fairly easy, slightly time consuming though. Chicken was perfect though.

This recipe was delicious but took a lot longer than 40 min (I would say closer to 90). That was partly because I added too much pasta and had to add more milk/water to compensate. Overall, though, would make again.

If you cook the pasta in the simmering sauce make sure you test it before removing from heat and adding cheese. I used Farfalle as it holds up well to creamy sauces and it took an extra minute or so before it was al dente (package directions of 11 minutes). Really has some delicious flavors that combine well. Make sure to season chicken well otherwise it will get lost in the flavors from the sauce. I would say it was kud friendly if they like the Italian flavors. if they like plain Mac and Chesse it may be too rich.

Excellent! I used fire roasted peppers instead of sun-dried tomatoes, worked out great.

100 times yes!!! So frigging good!

I would suggest half the amount of sun dried tomatoes, cooking the pasta separately and make sure to use a small onion or half of a large one. Delicious! Had to use cheddar but expect the gruyere is better

It took 75 minutes between prep and cooking, instead of the 40 the recipe claims. I used chicken broth instead of white wine, and omitted the gruyere-or-cheddar. The recipe was quite good, though, all things considered. It just took longer than advertised.

really enjoyable, have made several times.

Delicious! I cut up the chicken before cooking it. I used smoked paprika. Yummmm! The boys even liked it! No complaints!

Really flavourful!

It's very good. So good that my kids ask for the "fancy mac and cheese" every few weeks.

Super simple and not too heavy! Just add less cheese if you don't want all of it. No problems with pasta taking long and used multigrain, too. We substituted milk for unsweetened almond milk and accidentally put too much pasta. All turned out great anyway!

The chicken was not my favorite but overall delicious and serve with sweet peas.

this is amazing. I couldn't find elbow in my store so I got spiral and it was a lot longer to cook and I had to add water and a lid to make sure it cooked. but it was very good and will be my go to

Pasta took way too long to cook. I would cook that first. Cut the recipe in half and still a lot . I'd make again though. Very tasty

my husband is a picky ester bit loved this all except the sundried tomatoes. however I loved everything about this dish. my toddler however would only take one bite of the Mac but ate the chicken. plenty of leftovers!
