Two of our favorite foods - Buffalo chicken and macaroni and cheese - come together in this delicious comfort food dish. The mac and cheese part is creamy and super cheesy. We love the kick of spice from the Buffalo chicken. You taste the Buffalo flavor in every bite. If you like your Buffalo wings a little spicy, drizzle a bit of extra sauce on top when serving. Your family and friends are going to love this dinner.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut raw chicken breasts into small chunks and fry in a good olive or canola oil over medium heat until no longer pink. No need to brown, just make sure the breast chunks are cooked and still juicy. Drain chunks from pan and place in a bowl with 1/3 cup of Frank's Hot Sauce and allow to blend. In the meantime, begin boiling a pot of salted water for your pasta and bring to a rolling boil.
- Pour 1/2 and 1/2 in medium-sized saucepan and add Wondra Flour. Mix well while still cold and begin warming over medium heat. Add 1/2 stick of butter and bring to a gentle low boil. Once milk and butter mixture begins to slightly boil, turn the temperature down to low and continue to stir. Begin adding your cups of both Monterey and Colby Jack cheese to the saucepan and occasionally stir until melted and well blended. Remove from heat.
- Cook pasta according to package, drain and rinse well.
- Return pasta to its pot. Add cheese sauce and marinated chicken chunks.
- Blend well and spread evenly in a greased 9 x 13 pan.
- Add shredded cheddar cheese to the top of dish and place in the oven for approximately 20-25 minutes. (Just enough until cheddar cheese melts and pasta is lightly brown on the ends). Remove from the oven and let stand for five minutes.
- Sprinkle with chopped scallions and serve with a green tossed salad.
