Instrucciones
Make the chili
Brown ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Cook until the beef reaches an internal temperature of 160°F / 71°C, checking with a meat thermometer in the thickest part. Add diced onion and cook until softened. Stir in garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, and salt. Add diced tomatoes and kidney beans. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Make the cheese sauce
In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk and cook until thickened, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack until smooth.
Combine
Toss cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce. Spread half the mac and cheese in a greased 9x13 baking dish. Spread all the chili on top. Top with the remaining mac and cheese.
Consejo del chef: Layering creates distinct pockets of chili and mac throughout the dish instead of a uniform mixture.
Bake
Top with extra shredded cheddar. Bake at 375°F for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and the cheese topping is golden brown.
Rest and serve
Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before scooping. This allows the layers to set and makes it easier to serve neat portions.
