The taboo against mixing cheese and fish or seafood is largely an Italian one, and I absorbed it growing up in a heavily Italian American-influenced New Jersey.
Instructions to make Shrimp Mac N Cheese:
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Melt butter on stove top
- Add flour to thicken
- Slowly stir in milk
- Add cheeses and stir. Reserve just enough cheese to sprinkle over the top of the dish
- Stir in sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika
- Pour cheese sauce over pasta and shrimp in a baking dish. To add more flavor, I seasoned my shrimp while cooking
- Sprinkle with reserved cheese and Ritz Crackers.
- Bake for 30 minutes
Add garlic at the very end for most robust flavor. For cheese sauce, melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add water and stir with a whisk. I loaded up my favorite basic baked macaroni and cheese recipe (seen previously here and here, and an ultimate version here) with spicy shrimp, pepper jack cheese for an extra kick, and topped it with light-as-air Panko bread crumbs. The dish isn't too spicy (my mom is really sensitive to spicy dishes, and she thought the mac and cheese was fabulous, the spice not too overpowering), so if.
