Description

Des coquilles de pâtes géantes farcies au poulet crémeux et nappées d’une sauce Alfredo maison ultra gourmande et réconfortante.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box jumbo pasta shells
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 15 oz ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook pasta shells in salted water until just under al dente, then drain and rinse with cool water.
  2. Melt 4 tbsp butter in a pan and sauté garlic for 1 minute.
  3. Toss shredded chicken with garlic butter and set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, combine chicken, ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, and parsley.
  5. In a saucepan, simmer heavy cream and butter.
  6. Whisk in Parmesan until smooth, then season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  7. Spread a thin layer of Alfredo sauce in a baking dish.
  8. Stuff each shell with the chicken mixture and place in the dish.
  9. Pour remaining Alfredo sauce over shells and top with extra mozzarella.
  10. Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 20–25 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Notes

Do not overcook the pasta shells before stuffing. Freshly grated Parmesan creates the smoothest Alfredo sauce texture.
