Monterey jack is often less expensive than cheddar.

Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente.

Drain the pasta but do not rinse it to keep the starch.

In the same skillet used for chicken, melt butter.

Add minced garlic and stir in flour to make a roux.

Gradually whisk in beef broth and cream until smooth.

Simmer the sauce until thickened.

Fold in half the cheese into the sauce.

In a large bowl, toss the pasta, chicken, caramelized onions, and sauce together.

Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish.

Top with cheese, sprinkling the remaining cheese evenly over the top.

Bake at 375° F (190° C) for 20 to 25 minutes until bubbly and golden.

Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
