Chicken Macaroni Bake
8 oz. macaroni
2 chicken breasts
1/2 cup frozen peas
3 Tbs. butter
3 Tbs. flour
1/2 cup cream
1 cup chicken broth
4 oz. shredded Gouda cheese
1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 Tbs. melted butter
Boil chicken breasts until cooked through, about 10-15 minutes. Dice. Boil macaroni and thaw peas. Meanwhile, prepare sauce: melt butter over medium heat, whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute, then add cream and broth and slowly add cheese, stirring constantly to melt. Mix sauce, chicken, macaroni, and peas in a 13x9 dish. Mix butter and bread crumbs and sprinkle over the top. Cook uncovered at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
