Инструкции

  1. THE NIGHT BEFORE (or possibly early in the day): Cook lasagna noodles in 6 quarts.
  2. boiling water for 5-7 min or possibly till tender; drain, wipe noodles dry with a clean/dry cloth, lay flat on waxed paper.
  3. While noodles are cooking, heat butter and extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet.
  4. Saute/fry onion, garlic and mushrooms till they're tender; add in remove from heat; set aside.
  5. Place cooked chicken in food processor and pulse till chicken resembles a tuna salad mix. Combine chicken with the onions, garlic, mushrooms and the fat in that they were sauteed; add in egg, cream and seasonings. Add in spinach (cooked) and mix well.
  6. Cut each lasagna noodle into 2 or possibly 3 pcs-each piece should be 3 to 4 inches long; place a tablespoonful of the chicken filling on each piece and roll into a tubular shape. If you do not want to make canneloni, just layer the ingredients like you would for lasagna.
  7. Arrange rolls next to each other, one layer deep, in a buttered baking dish; set aside while you prepare the cheese sauce.
  8. CHEESE SAUCE: Heat butter then add in the flour and cook for a few min to get rid of the floury taste. Gradually add in the chicken broth, whisking constantly to prevent lumps; add in cream, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, till thickened and smooth; remove from heat. Stir in 3/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese and mix well.
  9. I like to use, both, red and white sauce on this one. I spoon over a strip of the white sauce, next to it I spoon on some red; keep doing which across the dish till the sauce covers the noodles. The red/white pattern makes it look pretty and gives the dish a little more flavor. It also cuts back on some of the fat.
  10. Spoon sauce over cannelloni in baking dish; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese and Mozzarella cheese, if used; chill till you're ready to bake it.
  11. BEFORE SERVING: Preheat broiler; place cannelloni 4-5 inches from heat and broil for 10 min or possibly till sauce bubbles and top browns. If you'll be making lasagna, bake in a 350-degree oven for 25-30 min, or possibly till it's bubbly and the top is browned a bit.
