Chicken Parmesan

Manicotti (the plural form of the Italian word manicotto), literally, “little sleeves”, is an Italian-American cuisine form of pasta. Manicotti are very large pasta tubes, usually smooth, that are intended to be stuffed and baked. The filling is generally ricotta cheese mixed with cooked chopped spinach, and possibly ground meat such as veal, however strictly meat filling implies cannelloni and not manicotti. They are then topped with tomato sauce.
