Stir in sherry, lemon juice, lemon pepper and salt. Cook over medium-high heat about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until almost all liquid has evaporated. Stir in whipping cream. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil over medium-high heat about 1 minute, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened.
• In small bowl, mix cream cheese, feta cheese, 2 tablespoons onion and the Worcestershire sauce with fork until well blended. Stir in ham and chives. Fill each shell with about 3 tablespoons of the cheese mixture, using small spoon.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°. Grease rectangular baking dish, 13x9x2 inches. Cook manicotti shells as directed on package.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 350 degrees F. In a small bowl, cover dried mushrooms with hot water; set aside to soak for 30 minutes. After mushrooms have soaked, drain them, and coarsely chop. Meanwhile, prepare manicotti shells according to package directions, drain, and cool. Lightly spray an 8 by 8-inch baking pan with olive oil; set aside. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat, and spray pan with olive oil as it is heating. Add ground turkey and brown, breaking it up to cook evenly. Drain fat from pan. Add garlic and onions and cook until onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes. Add roasted peppers and cook for about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, and stir in the ricotta. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer turkey mixture to a large resealable plastic bag. Pipe the filling into the cooled manicotti shells. Place the manicotti shells in the prepared baking dish. Top with tomato sauce and then sprinkle Parmesan over top. Fill the cooled pasta shells with the turkey mixture and Parmesan. Bake for 25 minutes. Serve immediately.
• Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, onion, and dried oregano, and saute until onion is translucent. Add tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and pour over the prepared stuffed manicotti shells.

Steps:

• Filling -- In a large saute pan add the butter and olive oil and add the garlic and onions, and cook 3-4 minutes until they begin to brown. Then add the mushrooms and cook until everything is tender and golden brown. Season with the rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper and cook about 5 minutes until everything is combined and the vegetables are nice and soft. Remove and let cool.
• Pasta -- As the mushrooms cooks, bring a pot of salted water up to a boil and cook the manicotti according to directions. Drain and set on a cookie sheet to cool. I spray the cookie sheet with Pam or any non stick so they don't stick.
• Filling Part II -- Now after the mushrooms have cooled, add to the ricotta cheese and the mozarella. Mix well and then stuff the manicotti and set to the side as you prepare the sauce.
• Sauce -- In a medium pot, melt the butter on medium heat and add the flour and mix well to combine. Slowly whisk in the milk and bring to a medium boil to let the sauce thicken. Add a little salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Once thickened, add the cheese and parsley and simmer just until melted.
• Casserole -- Add 1 cup of the sauce to the bottom of a casserole dish lightly sprayed with pam or any non stick spray. Then add the manicotti. Top with the remaining cheese sauce making sure to cover each manicotti. Top with the remaining parmesan.
• Bake -- 350 for 20-30 covered for (10 minutes) then uncovered for another 10-20 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. Make sure to let it set 5 minutes before serving.
• A rich dish deserves a nice fresh crisp salad to go along the side. My secret salad. You know that jar of marinated vegetables next to the pickles and olives in the condiments aisle. Add a jar of that to some fresh romaine, add some fresh grape tomatoes and you have a great quick salad. You can even add some extra black or kalamata olive if you want. The vinegar and oil in the jar makes a great quick 2 minute salad. I usually add all the vegetables and about 1/2 of the liquid - Nothing else. Just toss and enjoy.

Steps:

• Pound chicken breast with a meat mallet between 2 sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap until meat is uniform thickness; about 1/4-inch. Cut into serving-sized pieces (2 or 3 pieces per breast).
• Heat the butter with 1 tablespoon of olive oil in deep, heavy skillet or saute pan over medium heat.
• Dredge chicken in seasoned flour. Add to hot oil/butter in skillet. Saute until golden on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from pan.
• Add remaining olive oil to hot skillet. Saute mushrooms and garlic until mushrooms begin to brown.
• Add white wine to skillet, scraping up all the browned bits that are at the bottom of the pan (this is called "deglazing"). Bruise the fresh thyme by twisting it between your fingers or hitting it with the dull side of a knife in a few places. Add thyme to mushroom/wine mixture in pan.
• Add the chicken back to the pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
• Remove chicken from pan. Add the cream and heat through. Add the asiago cheese (if you like it strongly flavored, use 1/2 cup; not as strongly flavored, use the 1/4 cup--asiago is a powerful cheese and you can even use less for just a whisper of flavor. I like it strong so I used 1/2 cup).
• Cook, stirring constantly over low heat until cheese melts. Continue cooking until sauce is reduced by about half. If you wish to skip the reduction step, you may thicken the sauce slightly with about 1 tbs instant flour or 1 tbs cornstarch mixed with 2 tbs water -- however, the reduction will taste better.
• Add chicken back to pan and heat through.
• Garnish with sprigs of fresh thyme. May be served over any pasta.

Steps:

• To Make Asiago Basil Cream Sauce: Bring heavy cream, all seasonings, garlic, basil and chicken base to a low simmer in a 2 quart saucepan. Let it simmer for 10 minutes to develop flavors.
• Carefully add the shredded cheese. Stir constantly to avoid breaking the sauce. You must not boil the sauce at any time or it will separate.
• Cover the sauce and set it aside from the heat until you are ready to add it to the pasta.
• To Finish the Pasta: In a large saute pan, over medium high heat, add bacon and stir occasionally.
• Once bacon is about 3/4 cooked, season with salt, white pepper and granulated garlic add mushrooms and cook them thoroughly. Note: If there's excessive rendered bacon grease, remove some.
• Add pasta to the saute pan and stir well.
• Next, add the sauce and bring to a simmer for approximately ten minutes.
• Remove pasta from the heat and place it on a serving dish. Garnish with basil and Asiago cheese.

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water to boil in small saucepan. Remove saucepan from heat, add chilies and soak 30 minutes. Drain chilies, reserving 6 tablespoons soaking liquid. Cut stems off chilies. Cut chilies open. Scrape out seeds and discard. Combine chilies, 6 tablespoons reserved soaking liquid and garlic in blender and puree until smooth.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine cream and chili puree in heavy large skillet. Bring to boil. Reduce heat; simmer 3 minutes. Whisk in lime juice. Season with salt. Strain sauce; return to skillet. (Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Melt butter in another heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and mushrooms and sauté until onion is translucent and mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Add cheese, cilantro, tomatoes and 3 tablespoons cream sauce. Simmer until just heated through, about 4 minutes. Stir in avocado. Season filling with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Bring remaining cream sauce to simmer over low heat. Cook 1 tortilla in cream mixture until softened, turning to coat, about 15 seconds. Carefully transfer tortilla to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Cover remaining sauce and keep warm. Spoon generous 1/3 cup filling down center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas, enclosing filling completely. Arrange seam side down on same baking sheet. Cover enchiladas with foil.
• Bake enchiladas until heated through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to plates. Spoon some sauce atop each. Serve, passing any remaining sauce separately.
