CHICKEN MANICOTTI ALFREDO

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, marinate chicken with vinegar, olive oil, and garlic for at least 30 minutes. Saute in a little olive oil until done. Set aside.
• Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water until al dente. Drain, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, melt butter or margarine in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add heavy cream, salt, nutmeg, and ground black pepper, and stir until sauce thickens. Reduce heat to low. Add grated Parmesan cheese, and stir until the cheese melts. Set Alfredo sauce aside.
• In a large bowl, mix together ricotta cheese, egg, oregano, marjoram, and basil. Mix in cooked chicken.
• Stuff cooked manicotti shells with chicken and ricotta mixture. Cover the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with half of the Alfredo sauce. Place stuffed shells on top of sauce. Pour remaining sauce over shells. Top with one cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake at 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven for 45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• 1) Heat oven to 375. In medium bowl, mix pasta sauce, water, and garlic powder. In ungreased 13x9-inch baking dish, spread about one-third (1 cup) of the pasta sauce mixture.
• 2) If there are not 14 chicken tenders in your package, cut the larger tenders in half until you get 14 total (because there are 14 manicotti shells to stuff). Sprinkle the italian seasonings over the raw shicken tenders. Stuff the chicken tenders into the uncooked manicotti shells. Place shells on pasta sauce mixture in baking dish. Pour remaining pasta sauce mixture evenly over shells, covering completely.
• 3) Cover with foil. Bake 45 to 50 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese (and extra italian seasonings if desired). Bake uncovered 2 to 4 minutes longer until cheese is melted.
• Optional: Top with tomato and pesto before serving.

• Make sure shells are drained well.

Pour the remaining sauce on top of the shells. Cover and bake for 35-40 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake 10 minutes more or until cheese is just melted, but not browned and manicotti shells are heated through.
