Chicken Alfredo Stuffed Shells

Ingredients:
 1 lb large pasta shells
 1 lb chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
 3.50 oz bacon, chopped
 1 ½ cups Ricotta cheese
 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
 4 oz Mozzarella cheese, grated
 ½ cup Romano cheese, grated
 1 cup heavy cream
 1 tbsp salt
 1 tbsp vinegar
 1 tbsp oil
 ½ cup butter
 1 egg
 parsley or basil, chopped
 oregano
 salt
 pepper
Directions:
1

In a large pot with water, add one tablespoon of salt, vinegar and oil. Bring to a boil and add pasta shells. Cook according to al dente cooking instructions on box. Drain water and lay shells on a flat surface to dry and cool.

2

Meanwhile, melt the butter over medium heat in a medium saucepan. Add cream and bring to a gentle boil. Remove from heat and stir in the 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Set aside. The sauce will thicken as it cools.

3

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9x9 baking dish.

4

Combine Mozzarella, Romano and Parmesan cheeses together. Reserve about 1/3 cup of this mixture for topping.

5

In a large bowl, combine this cheese mixture and the Ricotta Cheese with the egg and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in the shredded chicken.

6

Add half of the sauce into the bottom of the baking dish. Stuff shells with the shredded chicken mixture and arrange in a single layer in the baking dish. Add the remaining Alfredo sauce over the stuffed shells. Sprinkle with the bacon and the reserved 1/3 cup of cheese mix.

7

Bake in the preheated 350-degree oven for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly.

8

Garnish with fresh basil, parsley, or oregano.
