Mexican Chicken Manicotti
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. Bake: 40 min.
YIELD: 7 servings.
Our family of five enjoys trying different ethnic cuisines. This Italian specialty has a little Mexican zip. Be careful not to overcook the manicotti. If the filled shells happen to break, just place them in the pan seam-side down.
