Method
Season the diced chicken with salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian herb seasoning mix, and olive oil; mix until evenly coated.
Lightly spray a pan with cooking oil and cook the chicken over medium‑high heat for 8–10 minutes until golden and fully cooked.
Reduce the heat, add butter and chopped parsley, stir until combined, then remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, sauté the diced onion and garlic until softened, then pour in the evaporated milk.
Add smoked paprika, black pepper, Italian herb seasoning mix, and salt; stir in cream cheese, cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan, cooking over low heat until the sauce is melted, smooth, and creamy.
Meanwhile, boil the macaroni according to the package directions, drain, and return to the pot.
Stir the cooked macaroni into the cheese sauce until every piece is fully coated.
Fold the cooked chicken into the creamy mac and cheese, divide the mixture evenly into five meal‑prep containers, and serve.
