Chicken Cannelloni


Ingredients:

  • 6 crepes
  • 2 cooked chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup fresh cheese
  • 4 oz mozzarella
  • 1 egg
  • 2/3 cup grated parmesan
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh Italian herbs
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • pinch of cayenne
  • splash of olive oil
  • 1 minced garlic clove (my sauce had lots of garlic, so this was not added in the clip)
  • 2 cups tomato sauce





This very simple chicken cannelloni recipe can be made with a variety of meats, cheeses (but use real ones, like the Parmesan shown here) and sauces, so watch the technique and then freestyle. By the way, before you ask, the difference between a cannelloni and a manicotti, is the later is an open tube of pasta, and a cannelloni is normally closed up as you see here. Many restaurants, however, use the terms interchangeably. I sure hope you make some crepes, and then give these a try. Enjoy!
