Southern Fried Chicken with Creamy Mac and Cheese

Serve hot: This dish is best served immediately while the chicken is crispy and the mac and cheese is creamy and cheesy.

Leftovers: Store leftover fried chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. The mac and cheese can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove, adding a little milk to loosen the cheese sauce if needed.

Variations:
Add some spice: If you love heat, sprinkle in a little more cayenne pepper or even some hot sauce into the mac and cheese.

Extra cheese: Add a mix of cheeses such as mozzarella or gouda for a richer flavor.

Vegetarian option: Skip the chicken and enjoy the creamy mac and cheese as a meal on its own.

Q: Can I make the mac and cheese ahead of time?
