Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
14 manicotti, uncooked
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups milk
3 cups shredded monterey jack cheese or 3 cups cheddar cheese
4 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese, divided

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Beat in the sour cream, parsley, salt and pepper. Stir in chicken. (If you want a creamier texture, place the cream cheese, sour cream and chicken in a food chopper) In a small skillet, cook onion in butter until tender; add to chicken mixture. Stuff into manicotti shells. (To make this easier, put mixture into a baggie, seal it up, cut the tip off of corner of bag and pipe into tube.).
  • In a large saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour and salt until smooth. Gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in 2-1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese just until melted.
  • Spread about 1/2 cup cheese sauce in each of two greased 11-in. x 7-in. x 2-in. dishes. Top with stuffed shells and remaining sauce.
  • Cover and bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with remaining cheeses. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until bubbly and cheese is melted. Yield: 7 servings.

This recipe was easy to follow and the dish turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a bit more seasoning to the filling.
