- Bring back to a small boil and then set aside.
- In a baking dish, spray bottom with cooking spray.
- Pour a small amount of Alfredo sauce just to cover bottom of pan.
- Put about a tablespoon of chicken mixture in each jumbo shell and place in baking dish. I line them up neatly. Pour whatever leftover mixture you have over shells to cover.
- Place slices of mozzarella over the entire dish, covering all of the shells and mixture.
- Place in oven for 45 minutes.

This was FAB! I changed it a bit, for our tastes, adding some red pepper flakes to the mixture, and not putting the alfredo sauce into the stuffing, only on the top and in the botom of the baking dish. My husband loved it! Next time I am going to use broccoli instead of artichoke hearts, for a variation. Thanks so much for a great idea!!!

I am a mother of two girls living in Las Vegas. My husband likes to cook but will never use a recipe. I am a better cook when I throw things together. The problem is that I never remember what I did to get the recipe!
