SPICY SHRIMP MAC 'N' CHEESE
How do you take a special occasion treat like lobster mac and cheese and make it weeknight friendly? Just swap the lobster for shrimp! This skillet mac, made with an ultra-creamy white cheese sauce, gets tender, juicy butterfly shrimp baked right on top. Since we're not sticking to tradition, we've also bumped up the spice level with some fresh chiles - a simple twist any Chopped chef would love.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare the butterfly shrimp according to the package directions for the oven. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions for al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain well and reserve.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chile and cook until just tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the flour until completely moistened and bubbling, about 1 minute. While whisking continuously, slowly pour in the milk and continue to simmer until creamy and thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and whisk in the Parmesan, mascarpone, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt until smooth. Whisk in 1 1/2 cups of the Muenster cheese until completely melted and smooth. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the reserved pasta until evenly combined.
- Top the mac and cheese with the remaining 1/2 cup Muenster cheese, then place the butterfly shrimp in a concentric circle on top, tails facing up. (You may need to shingle or overlap the shrimp slightly so they all fit in the skillet.)
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the cheese is completely melted and the shrimp are warmed through, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with another pinch of cayenne and some chopped parsley.

SHRIMP MAC AND CHEESE
This macaroni and cheese takes on a subtle coastal flair with the addition of shrimp. I used cooked salad shrimp as I found the size comparable to the elbow macaroni.
