Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by cutting chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and seasoning them with salt and pepper for flavor. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together honey, black pepper, and any additional seasonings for an aromatic glaze.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil. Once shimmering, introduce the glazed chicken to the pan and cook for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
- While the chicken cooks, boil salted water in a large pot. Add the macaroni and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In the same pot, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour to create a roux, cooking for about 2 minutes. Gradually add milk, whisking constantly until thickened.
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese until melted to create a velvety sauce. Combine cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce and fold in crispy chicken.
- Plate your creation and savor the comforting blend of flavors. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes
For best results, cook the chicken and pasta simultaneously to save time. Experiment with different cheeses or add veggies for customization.
