Directions
Step 1
Heat oven to 350°F.
Step 2
In medium pot over medium heat, melt butter; add olive oil. Whisk in flour. Cook, whisking often, until mixture forms smooth paste, about 2 minutes. Mix in Sazonador Total and Hot Yellow Pepper Paste until well combined. Slowly add milk, whisking constantly until smooth; increase heat to high. Bring milk mixture to boil, whisking occasionally to prevent lumps, until mixture forms smooth sauce, about 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat. Stir in cheddar cheese until melted.
Step 3
Fold cooked pasta into cheese mixture until well combined; pour into 2-quart casserole dish; set aside.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in small skillet over medium heat; add breadcrumbs. Cook, stirring occasionally, until saturated in oil and lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over macaroni and cheese.
Step 5
Bake, uncovered, until macaroni and cheese is hot and bubbling and breadcrumbs are well toasted, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest at least 5 minutes before serving.
