Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook shell pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until still firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain.

  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  3. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add mushrooms, onion, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook and stir until mushrooms have browned and onion is translucent, about 7 minutes. Add radicchio, garlic, and sage, cook until radicchio has wilted and garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in pasta.

  4. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour, cook until foaming. Pour in milk, whisking constantly, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, whisk in Asiago cheese, heavy cream, 1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until sauce is melted and smooth.

  5. Pour sauce over pasta mixture, stir until thoroughly combined. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Top with remaining 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and panko.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 30 minutes. Broil until topping is golden brown, about 1 minute.
