Loved this. I was lazy and didn't want to cook noodles so I used tortillas and made regular chicken enchiladas. This now replaces a previous recipe as my standard chicken enchilada recipe. I did use the suggestion of aeg2t and used salsa verde in the sauce and loved it.

My husband LOVES this dish and he is very picky. However, I don't bother stuffing the manicotti, I use lasagna sheets instead. I layer the two mixtures as if I was making lasagna. Far less hassle and extremely tasty!

This received rave reviews from my bunch of men! We even used the same filling in flour tortillas, excellent addition to our recipe box!

This was so good and easy to make. I used 2 cans of the chopped green chilies. I used 1 can each of the bowl mixtures. My husband liked this as well and he took some to work and gave to a co-worker. He liked it as well. Thanks for a great recipe!

EXCELLENT recipe. Only changes I made were not combining the salsa with the other ingredients, but serving it with the dish to accommodate a preference to not have the salsa baked. Also used a Chipotle Chicken Marinade and grilled the chicken rather than plain cubed cooked chicken. Everyone loved it!

This is the absolute worst recipe I've ever tried! It has no substance and the flavor is overwhelmed by the sour cream in it. My husband took one bite and refused to eat anymore of it. I gave it one star because the rating doesn't allow no stars.

This recipe is very yummy! I used less than half the cheese that is called for though. It was still very creamy and cheesy. I also used salsa verde, which was perfect with the chicken!

This recipe was really a winner! It was easy to make. It does take some time, but I cooked my chicken the day before to save on some prep work. The only change I made was that I marinated the chicken in a zippy Southwest marinade. The flavor was great! I will definitely make this recipe again and again.

So good!! I made this a week ago, and I'm still craving it! Big hit with the family - and if stuffing pasta shells takes to long try using flour tortilla's!

I've never written a review before, but had to for this recipe. This is, hands down, our family's favorite and it has been for several years now. I measured everything carefully at first, but now I toss in as much cheese, sour cream, etc. as I want - it's NOT a diet dish, but it's as appealing and delicious as anything we've ever eaten. It's a bit labor-intensive and worth every minute. Thanks for an amazing recipe - it's #1 at our house!!!

My husband loved this. I made my own manicotti shells since it was so hot I didn't want boiling water on the stove. I will make it again!

This was very tasty, however I did replace the chicken with ground beef and fir the sauce I used Picante Sauce and Cheddar Cheese soup.

REALLY good and quite easy. I would say the filling should be heaping 1/4 cup or 1/3 cup. I had a little leftover filling and I was doing heaping amounts. We used mild salsa and medium would add more flavor. I used light sour cream, reduced fat sharp cheddar and we bought a Von's roasted chicken. 12 stuffed tubes do not fit in a 9x13 pan so I had to use a second baking dish. 1-2 tubes/pp

I have a similar recipe the uses tortilla chips instead of the manicotti. Everyone always begs me to make it. The chips get high in carbs though, so I'm trying this one. It should be a huge hit.

This is a great recipe. If I am in a hurry I just used canned chicken and it is still fabulous!

This is a wonderful recipe! I cooked my chicken with poultry seasoning and it gave the filling nice flavor.

I agree that this recipe is very good - great flavor, which is amazing because there aren't any spices in it. A definite make again.

This recipe was absolutely fabulous. I didn't alter the recipe at all. I just served it on a bed of shredded lettuce for color and crunch and sprinkled chopped tomatoes and sliced ripe olives on the top. I live alone so the quantity gives me enough to divide up and freeze for a few more meals later on.
