Step 1
1. First, prepare the filling. Heat olive oil in a skillet and sauté chopped onion with garlic. Wash the chicken fillet, dry it, and pass it through a meat grinder. Add it to the skillet and fry for about 5 minutes, stirring. Transfer to a deep bowl. Blanch spinach in boiling water for one minute, then drain in a colander. Add the cooled spinach, ricotta, and a pinch of nutmeg to the chicken. Season the filling with salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything thoroughly. For the cannelloni recipe with sauce, you can use a meatless filling if desired.
