Creating Delicious Spicy Honey Chicken with Mac and Cheese can be done easily by following these simple steps:

For the Spicy Honey Chicken:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix together honey, soy sauce, sriracha, minced garlic, sesame oil, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. Preheat the Oven: While the chicken is marinating, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

3. Bake the Chicken: Place the marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a nice glaze.

4. Garnish: Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired.

For the Mac and Cheese:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Make the Cheese Sauce: In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 1-2 minutes until slightly golden.

3. Add Milk and Thicken: Gradually add the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

4. Mix in Cheese: Stir in mustard powder, salt, and pepper. Add shredded cheddar cheese and mix until the cheese has melted and the sauce is creamy.

5. Combine: Add the cooked macaroni into the cheese sauce and stir well to combine.

6. Optional Topping: If you desire a crunchy topping, pour mac and cheese into a greased baking dish, sprinkle breadcrumbs on top, and bake for 10-15 minutes at 350°F (175°C) until golden brown.
