I experiment with recipes a lot, just playing around just kind of having an idea of what I want to end up with but not knowing exactly how it will come out. Usually I will do all this long before I film a recipe. This time though I decided I wanted to make this and make it now so I decided to film the first time I was cooking something, and honestly wasn’t sure how it was going to come out. Well this Fried Chicken Mac N Cheese Burrito totally KiLLED it!! lol I was literally driving home from work and this just hit me, and I needed to eat it like NOW!! So I got all the stuff on my way home and just said ok lets do this! I know next time around I will take it up a notch, maybe some buffalo chicken or like a firecracker chicken. I will also make like a loaded smokey bacon mac n’ cheese next time around also lol. Whether you make a basic version like I made in the video or you ramp it way up like I am planning on doing you HAVE to try this. I mean really guys this is a whole new level of OMG!! See cooking can be fun =)

- 1 lb. Elbow Pasta
- 2 Tbsp. Butter
- 2 Tbsp. Flour
- 2 Cups Milk
- 2 Cups Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
- Salt Pepper
- 1-1/2 lb. Chicken Tenders
- 3 Eggs
- 1/4 Cup Milk
- 1 Tbsp. hot Sauce
- Salt
- Pepper
- 4 Burrito Size Tortillas
- Boil pasta according to package directions. Drain pasta and set aside.
- In the pot that you cooked pasta in heat the butter until melted, add the flour and whisk.
- Whisk in the milk slowly. This will create a thick sauce, adding about ¼ cup at a time.
- Add in cheese and whisk smooth. Pour pasta into the sauce and stir with a spatula until the sauce covers the pasta completely.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Preheat the oil in your deep fryer or a cast iron skillet to 350 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, and hot sauce until combined. In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour and 2 tsp salt.
- Pat chicken dry. Dredge each wing in the milk/egg mixture, then in the flour, then back in the egg mixture and again in the flour. Make sure to shake the excess off after each step.
- Fry the tenders in batches. Fry them until crispy and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from fryer and place on a baking rack.
- Place two tenders in the middle of a burrito tortilla, spoon in a large amount of mac n' cheese.
- Fold up closest side of tortilla, then fold in both sides and tightly roll.
