Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta shells according to package directions for al dente. Drain and run under cold water until cool enough to touch.
- Mix the ricotta, 1 cup of the Italian blend cheese, the red pepper flakes, lemon zest, 1 pinch of the nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottom pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is just cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate and add the leek to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Pour the wine into the pot and stir to scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil and reduce until completely evaporated, stirring. Lower the heat to medium, pour in the cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the Parmesan, the remaining pinch nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper. Remove from the heat.
- Fold the chicken and its juices from the plate into the ricotta mixture. Spread 1 cup of the cream sauce onto the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish. Fill each pasta shell with a spoonful of ricotta mixture. Arrange the stuffed shells, seam-side up, shingling them so they all fit (you should have 5 shells along the short side and 6 shells along the long side). Ladle the remaining sauce over the top, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup Italian cheese blend and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake until the cheese and tops of noodles start to turn golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before sprinkling with some chives and more red pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a grill pan or iron skillet over medium heat, drizzle with olive oil, and cook the chicken on both sides until it's done. Remove and shred with two forks and allow to cool.
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, cottage cheese, mozzarella, 1 cup of the Parmesan, eggs, 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, salt, pepper, and chicken. Stir to combine, splashing in 2 tablespoons heavy cream if needed. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and sprinkle over the flour. Whisk and cook until the roux turns golden brown. Pour in the milk and cream, whisking constantly, and cook for a few minutes, until thickened. Add the garlic, the additional 1 cup Parmesan, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon minced parsley, and minced basil and stir until combined. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Set aside.
- Add 1 cup sauce to the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Using a spoon, fill each of the jumbo shells generously with the chicken/ricotta mixture. Lay them face down in the pan, then pour the sauce all over the top. Sprinkle on extra mozzarella and Parmesan, then bake for 25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden. Serve with salad!
