Zubereitung von Pimiento Mac And Cheese

  1. **Prepare the Pepper Mixture:** In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup water, 1 medium bell pepper (chopped), and 1 1/2 cloves garlic (minced) to a boil.
  2. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the pepper is tender, about 15 minutes.
  3. **Make the Panko Topping:** In a skillet over medium-high heat, toast 1 cup panko breadcrumbs until golden brown, stirring frequently (5-6 minutes).
  4. Transfer the toasted panko to a bowl and let cool to lukewarm.
  5. Stir in 1 tablespoon butter and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese until combined.
