- Stir in the sweet peppers OR pimiento (if using), and Parmesan cheese; heat through, and mix.
- For the filling, in a large bowl, stir together 3/4 cup of the sauce (set the remaining sauce aside), the cooked chicken, broccoli, onion, salt and pepper.
- Using a small spoon, stuff each manicotti with about 1/4 cup of the filling.
- Place in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake, covered for 20-30 minutes, or until heated through.
- Place 2 manicotti on each serving plate, spoon sauce over the shells.
