Best Chickenpumpkin And Spinach Cannelloni Recipes

CHICKEN & SPINACH CANNELLONI

Steps:

• In a large frying pan, add olive oil and about half of the crushed garlic. Cook for a minute before adding the peppers and onions. Cook on high heat for a few minutes until they start to brown. Then reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for about 10 more minutes. While the onions and peppers are cooking, add in a little of the tomato juice from the can. This will ensure they soften while they cook and not burn. Add tomatoes, herbs, salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the liquid in the tomatoes reduces by half. This will take around 10-12 minutes. Stir as it cooks. At this point taste your sauce and see if it is bitter at all. If so, add about a teaspoon of sugar. Stir well and leave to simmer for a few more minutes. Once you have finished this, add the mixture to the blender and blend in batches until you have a smooth sauce. Flavours can be adjusted once you have made your sauce with additional herbs, salt, pepper, sugar....
• Heat the reserved skillet and add a little olive oil and remaining garlic. Add in chicken and brown for just about 3 - 5 minutes. Add the spinach and stir until it has completed wilted. Remove from heat. Add prepared sauce to the chicken and spinach mixture.
• In a medium saucepan set over medium to high heat, melt butter until sizzling. Whisk in flour until you have a paste. Gradually start whisking in your milk. Continue doing this until you have added all the milk and you have a slightly thickened sauce. Reduce heat to medium low and add most of the cheese, both kinds, reserving a little for the top. Stir really well until all the cheese has melted into the sauce. Season with a little bit of salt and pepper and add the chopped parsley. Stir and remove from heat.
• Using a spoon, fill the cannelloni tubes with the chicken spinach filling. Repeat for all tubes. Place the filled tubes in a large deep sided baking dish. Use two pans if one isn't big enough. Evenly pour over the sauce. Top with remaining cheese.
