Ingredients
1 lb. penne
4 tbsp. unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp. flour
4 c. chicken broth
1 c. heavy cream
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. mustard powder
2 c. shredded rotisserie chicken
1 c. thick-cut ham, chopped
2 c. shredded Gruyere
1/2 c. grated Parmesan
1 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
Preparation
Step 1Preheat oven to 400°. Step 2In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside. Step 3In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle in flour and cook until slightly golden, 2 minutes more. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, then add mustard powder. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until liquid coats the back of a spoon, 10-12 minutes. Step 4Remove skillet from heat and stir in cooked pasta, chicken, ham, and Gruyere. Sprinkle top with Parmesan. Step 5Bake until warmed through, 13-15 minutes. For a golden top, broil for an extra 2-3 minutes. Garnish with parsley.
