Chicken Alfredo Manicotti
Report
Chicken Alfredo Manicotti is a blend of two of my favorite dinner dishes, Alfredo sauce and tender manicotti filled with cheese and chicken.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 box manicotti
- 9 oz bag fresh spinach
- 1/2 rotisserie chicken remove the meat from the bones and shred it
- 1 egg
- 18 oz ricotta cheese
- 1 cup grated parmesan
- 2 cups shredded Italian blend cheese you can also use mozzarella, divided
- Alfredo sauce double the recipe - or use store-bought
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the manicotti until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In the meantime, place a small skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and cook the spinach in it until wilted. Transfer it to a cutting board and roughly chop it.
- In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 cup Italian blend cheese, parmesan cheese, shredded chicken, chopped spinach, and the egg. Stir well until thoroughly combined.
- Next, spoon the mixture into a piping bag or large Ziploc bag. Cut off the corner enough to pipe the filling.
- Add 1 cup of Alfredo sauce over the bottom of a 13 x 9 baking dish.
- Pipe the cheese filling into the manicotti tubes and arrange them on the bottom of the baking dish one next to each other.
- Pour the remaining Alfredo sauce evenly on top of the manicotti, and sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly.
- Cool for 10 minutes, sprinkle with parsley, and serve.
