Lobster Mac 'N Cheese - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 (16 ounce) package bow tie pasta
2 tablespoons butter
2 shallots, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups heavy cream
6 ounces grated Grana Padano cheese, divided
4 ounces shredded Havarti cheese
4 ounces shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese
1/2 (8 ounce) container mascarpone cheese
4 ounces shredded Gruyere cheese
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 pound lobster meat, chopped
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute shallots and garlic until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Transfer shallot-garlic mixture to a double boiler. Add heavy cream, 1/2 of the Grana Padano, Havarti, Cheddar, mascarpone, and Gruyere cheeses. Stir until smooth, about 5 minutes. Season with white pepper. Stir in lobster meat. Drain pasta and mix into the sauce.
Pour pasta and sauce into a large baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining Grana Padano and panko on top.
Bake in the preheated oven until bread crumbs are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
