CHICKEN CANNELLONI
I entered this recipe in a contest sponsored by a local radio station years ago, and it won Grand Prize! It's a unique takeoff on cannelloni because you are stuffing chicken breasts instead of the usual pasta tubes. -Barbara Nowakowski, North Tonawanda, New York

SMOKED CHICKEN CANNELLONI
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the chicken: Using kitchen shears, remove the backbone of the chicken and set aside in the refrigerator for another use (such as Smoked Chicken Minestrone). Cut the chicken in half, straight through the breastbone. By separating the chicken into two pieces it will ensure that the chicken gets smoked more thoroughly. Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, the granulated garlic and smoked paprika.
- Place 1 deep aluminum roasting pan over the stove top. Line with aluminum foil. Add the soaked wood chips to a large piece of foil, and then fold in the sides to make a pouch. Punch holes in the top of the pouch, set it directly over a gas burner and turn on high. Leave for 2 to 3 minutes, watching carefully. Once it begins to smoke, using tongs, transfer the pouch to the bottom of the lined roasting pan. Set a wire rack over the chips in the lined roasting pan and position it so the wood chips are directly over the burner and continue to smoke. Place the chicken pieces bone-side down on the rack. Cover tightly with aluminum foil to seal in the smoke. Put the roasting pan into the oven and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 45 to 60 minutes. Remove and cool. Shred the smoked chicken breast and set aside 1 1/2 cups for the cannelloni (reserve the rest for another use). Increase the oven to 375 degrees F.
- While the chicken is smoking, make the creamy roasted red pepper sauce: Bring the oil to medium heat in a large saucepot. Sweat the onions until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sweat until fragrant, about a minute. Stir in the peppers and tomatoes. Simmer for 5 minutes. Working in 2 cup batches, process the sauce on high in a blender until smooth. Return the sauce to the pot, reduce the heat to low and whisk in the cream. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. If making ahead, cool before refrigerating for up to a week.
- For the cannelloni: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ricotta, cream cheese, 1 cup of the Parmesan, the egg and nutmeg with a wooden spoon. Fold in the reserved shredded chicken, spinach, tomatoes and some salt and pepper. Spoon the filling into a medium pastry bag fitted with a large open tip. Spread 1/2 cup of the creamy roasted red pepper sauce evenly on the bottom of a 9- by 13-inch gratin dish. Pipe about 2 1/2 tablespoons of the filling into the cannelloni shells and place them into the gratin dish. Spoon the remaining sauce over the cannelloni. Sprinkle with the panko and remaining Parmesan. Cover and bake until the filling is cooked through, about 30 minutes. Bake uncovered until the top is golden and bubbling, an additional 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and cool on a resting rack. Garnish with Parmesan and serve.
CHICKEN CANNELLONI (WITH OR WITHOUT SPINACH)
I'm not even sure where this recipe came from, it's been around so long. It sounds complicated, but it's really pretty simple, and goes together pretty quickly. And leftovers are great! If I'm making this for grownups, I add spinach, but if it's a family meal, I leave the spinach out. Sometimes, I will let the chicken marinate in white wine and thyme overnight before I begin.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, simmer the chicken breasts, onion, broth, wine, and thyme, until chicken is done.
- Remove the chicken breasts to a plate and allow them to cool slightly.
- While the chicken breasts are cooling, strain the chicken broth to remove the onions and thyme.
- Reserve the broth into a large saucepan.
- Put the onions and thyme into your food processor.
- Chop or tear the chicken into big chunks, and put into food processor with the onions and thyme.
- Pulse the chicken in the food processor until finely chopped (you may need to divide the chicken into 2 batches).
- (I've also used my old, heavy meat grinder for this).
- Prepare spinach, if using. Wash well, chop, and lightly sauté in a saucepan with 2 tbs olive oil until done to your preference. I personally don't like "mushy" spinach. You may also substitute frozen chopped spinach, but be sure to squeeze it out really well.
- In a large bowl, mix the chicken/onion mixture with the ricotta and cottage cheese, spinach, 1/2 c parmesan, nutmeg, and white pepper.
- Mix thoroughly; set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt butter.
- Whisk in flour, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn.
- Whisk in the reserved chicken broth, stirring constantly.
- Add the wine, and then the milk, stirring constantly, until sauce is velvety-smooth.
- Simmer, stirring frequently, about 20 minutes, while you start to assemble the canneloni.
- Assemble the canneloni: Lay 4-5 egg roll wraps out on the counter.
- Place approx 1/2 to 1 cup of chicken/cheese filling on center of wrap, and roll up, setting aside.
- Repeat until you're done.
- When sauce is done simmering, pour approx 1 cup sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
- Tilt, to make sure it's spread evenly.
- Arrange canneloni in dish, and top with remaining sauce.
- Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup parmesan.
- Cover with foil, and bake at 350 for about 30 minutes.
- During last 10 minutes, take the foil off so that the parmesan browns.
- Allow to sit for about 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Boil the chicken in water. Once cooked shred with two forks. In a bowl, mix the chicken, spinach, ricotta cheese, Italian cheeses, egg, garlic and pepper. Set aside to use as the filling later. In the bottom of your 13″ x 9″ dish, spread a layer of sauce and sprinkle some asiago cheese. Bowl your lasagna noodles until they are al dente (which was 5 minutes for me). Put about 2 tablespoons of filling at the end of each lasagna noodle, roll up, and place, seam-side down in the dish. (You can use your best judgement on how much filling to put in your noodles.) Top with the remainder of your marinara sauce and sprinkle with more cheese. Bake at 350° for about 45-60 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and it's hot all over.
CHICKEN CANNELLONI WITH CREAM SAUCE
From a Treasury of Great Recipes, by Vincent and Mary Price. This is also good with about 1/2 cup of chopped spinach mixed in with the chicken. I used manicotti for this - I'm sure other types of stuffable pasta would work as well. This works fine making the whole recipe in a large baking dish/pan.
