Easy Chicken Manicotti image

A friend of mine gave me the original recipe, which of course I promptly modified. This is simple and yummy! Note that the ricotta does not stay IN the shells, it blends with the sauce to make everything extra cheesy.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pkg manicotti, uncooked
2-3 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped
15 oz ricotta cheese
2 pkg shredded sharp cheddar (appx 4 cups)
2 can(s) tomato sauce (26.5 oz each)
spices to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. Put ricotta in a bowl, and mix herbs to taste. (recommended: garlic salt or powder, fresh ground pepper, basil/oregano, Italian herb mix.) Mix in chicken until thoroughly coated.
  • 2. Spray a 13" x 9" glass casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Pour one can of sauce in the bottom of the pan and sprinkle with one bag of cheese. Stuff chicken-ricotta filling into the manicotti and arrange in the pan. Cover with the other can of sauce and the other bag of cheese.
  • 3. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover, turn the temperature up to 375 and bake for 20 more minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes after removing from oven. Serve with a spatula.

This recipe was a disaster. The manicotti shells were mushy, and the filling was tasteless.

The manicotti shells were overcooked, and the filling was too runny.

I found this recipe to be a little bland. I added some extra spices to the filling, and it was much better.

The chicken manicotti was a little dry, but the sauce was delicious.

This recipe is easy to follow and makes a delicious meal. I used low-fat cheese and ground turkey instead of chicken, and it was still very flavorful.
