lauttimur.com - Mac and cheese is enjoyed in various forms and variations, ranging from homemade recipes to pre-packaged mixes. It has become a staple comfort food in many households and is often seen as a classic American dish.
Lobster mac and cheese is a decadent and indulgent variation of the classic macaroni and cheese dish. It combines tender chunks of lobster meat with creamy cheese sauce and pasta, creating a rich and flavorful combination.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish and set it aside.
Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until it's al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until the mixture turns a light golden color.
Slowly pour in the milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue cooking and stirring until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and gradually add the cheddar, Gruyere, and Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and smooth. Add the salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well to combine.
Add the cooked pasta and chopped lobster meat to the cheese sauce. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
If desired, transfer the mixture to the greased baking dish. Sprinkle bread crumbs over the top for an added crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
