Como fazer Basil Stuffed Shells
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 1 large egg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
- Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add 1 pound jumbo pasta shells and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
- Gently stuff each shell with approximately 3 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture.
- Spread a thin layer of your favorite tomato sauce (about 1 1/2 cups) in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Arrange the stuffed shells in the baking dish, seam-side down.
- Pour the remaining tomato sauce over the stuffed shells.
- Sprinkle with extra Parmesan cheese (optional).
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
