Creamy Honey Pepper Chicken Mac and Cheese Delight

Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Make the Honey Pepper Sauce
In the same skillet, melt butter and add honey. Stir until the mixture is bubbling, then return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Toss the chicken in the honey pepper sauce to coat. Set aside.

Step 4: Make the Cheese Sauce
In a separate saucepan, pour the heavy cream over low heat. Slowly whisk in cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy.

Step 5: Combine and Serve
Add the cooked pasta to the cheese sauce, stirring to coat the pasta evenly.

Transfer the mac and cheese to a serving dish and top with the honey pepper chicken.

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
