CAJUN SHRIMP MAC AND CHEESE



Cajun Shrimp Mac and Cheese image

This macaroni and cheese gets elevated by the addition of shrimp. It partially cooks in the Instant Pot® and is finished in the oven. Please shred cheese yourself; if you use pre-shredded cheese, it will not be creamy.

1 ½ tablespoons butter
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups pipe rigate pasta
1 cup milk
¼ cup whipping cream
nonstick cooking spray
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
1 ½ cups cooked medium shrimp
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
½ cup panko bread crumbs
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
½ teaspoon Creole seasoning
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 ounces andouille sausage, diced
2 bunches scallions, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
12 ounces wagon-wheel pasta
1 bell pepper (red or green), chopped
1 tablespoon Cajun spice blend
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 1 minute less than the label directs. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta. Meanwhile, combine the olive oil and sausage in a large skillet over high heat and cook, stirring, until the sausage starts to brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in the scallions and bell pepper and cook until the vegetables are slightly soft, about 3 more minutes. Add the Cajun spice and flour and cook, stirring, 2 more minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk and continue whisking until the sauce is thick and smooth, about 5 more minutes. Add the pasta, cheese and reserved cooking water to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, tossing to coat the pasta in the sauce and melt the cheese, about 1 minute.
