Instructions

Combine the cubed chicken with olive oil, garlic, smoked paprika, garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl and let it rest for 10 minutes to marinate.
Warm a large skillet over medium heat and add the chicken mixture; cook it for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until fully cooked.
Lower the heat, stir in butter, honey, and freshly chopped parsley until everything is melted and the chicken is thoroughly coated, then set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat, then add garlic and cook until fragrant and golden, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Pour in heavy cream and bring it to a gentle boil, then stir in mozzarella, cheddar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
Cook elbow macaroni according to package directions until al dente, drain, and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
Mix the cooked pasta into the cheese sauce and simmer on low heat for 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
Serve warm or portion into containers for meal prep.
