Instructions
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.

- Melt butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour until a thick paste forms. Cook until golden, about 1 minute.
- Pour in milk, whisking constantly, until thickened and bubbling, about 5 minutes. Continue to cook and stir until sauce is smooth, about 1 minute more. Reduce heat and season with pepper.
- Stir Cheddar and Monterey Jack into the sauce until melted and combined.
- Stir in hot sauce to the desired level of spiciness.
- Add Gorgonzola, chicken, and macaroni; mix well to combine.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
