How to make it

  1. Boil macaroni until al dente, drain, and set aside. In a saucepan, melt butter, whisk in flour, then slowly whisk in milk. Simmer until thickened, stir in cheeses, salt, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix in pasta and pour into a greased baking dish.

  2. Bake mac and cheese at 375°F for 20–25 minutes until golden and bubbly.

  3. While the mac and cheese bakes, whisk flour, cornstarch, salt, and garlic powder in a bowl. Dip shrimp in beaten egg, dredge in flour mixture, and deep fry in hot oil until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

  4. Mix Lee Kum Kee Sriracha Mayo, honey, vinegar, and Lee Kum Kee Premium Soy Sauce to make your bang bang sauce. Toss crispy shrimp in the bang bang sauce until evenly coated.

  5. Top baked mac with crispy shrimp, drizzle with Lee Kum Kee Chiu Chow Style Chili Crisp Oil, and sprinkle with chopped chives.
