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.

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.

- 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.
