Ingredients
- 7-8 manicotti shells
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 oz mushroom sliced
- 3/4 cup onion diced
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 4 oz sour cream 1/2 cup
- 2 cups chicken cooked, shredded or cubed
- 2 tablespoons parsley fresh, minced
- salt
- black pepper
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 1/2 cups Monterey jack cheese shredded
- 4 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the manicotti shells and cook until al dente according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
- In the meantime, heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms. Cook until they start to soften, then add the onion and cook until both are cooked down and softened.
- Combine the cream cheese and sour cream in a large bowl. Add in the chicken, mushroom and onion mixture and parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently stuff the cooked pasta with the filling.
- In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and allow to cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk and continue to cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in 3/4 cup of the Monterey Jack and 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan. Stir until the cheeses are melted.
- Spread a small amount of the sauce in the bottom of a 2 quart baking dish. Top with the stuffed shells and pour the remaining sauce over the top. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and top with the remaining cheeses, then bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 10-15 minutes longer. Top with additional minced parsley, if desired.

Notes
- *There is enough filling for 8 manicotti shells, but half of a manicotti package is 7 shells, which makes it easy to save the other half for another meal.
