Chicken and Egg Macaroni Gratin

4. Combine and Assemble

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl or directly in a buttered baking dish, combine the macaroni, chicken, and half of the white sauce. Gently fold in the egg slices.
Pour the remaining sauce over the top. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and breadcrumbs.

5. Bake Until Golden

Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly. Broil for the last 2 minutes for an extra crispy top, if desired.

6. Serve Hot

Let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the gratin to set slightly. Pair with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables.
