How to Make Baked Mac N Cheese Sriracha

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 2-quart casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Add bread crumbs and stir to combine. Set aside.
3. Bring 2 quarts of salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add macaroni and cook until slightly undercooked (7-8 minutes). Drain.
4. While pasta cooks, melt remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened (about 5 minutes).
5. Whisk in flour and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of milk until smooth.
6. Add remaining milk and heavy cream. Stir in salt, dry mustard, pepper, nutmeg, and sriracha. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. Reduce heat to low. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, whisking until melted and smooth.
8. Stir in cooked macaroni until well coated.
9. Pour macaroni and cheese mixture into prepared casserole dish.
10. Top with remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese and grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese.
11. Sprinkle with reserved buttered bread crumbs.
12. Bake uncovered for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
13. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.
