Chicken Parmesan Stuffed Shells

If your family loves Chicken Parmesan, then they will love these stuffed shells full of chicken and creamy ricotta cheese. 

Chicken Parmesan Stuffed Shells

1# chicken tenders, cooked and fork shredded

15 oz ricotta cheese

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

1 large egg

1 tsp oregano

¼ tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

½ tsp sea salt

¼ tsp freshly ground pepper

30 large pasta shells, cooked al dente

1 ½ cups red pasta sauce

In a large bowl combine the cheeses, chicken, egg and spices.  In a greased 9 x 13 pan, place the pasta sauce at the bottom evenly.  Stuff each shell.  I found using an ice cream scoop (the one you use for meatballs) works perfectly.  Line the pan with the shells and bake for 30 minutes at 350°.  Remove from oven and sprinkle 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese on top and return to the oven until it melts.
