Preparation
1. Cook the Manicotti
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the manicotti tubes and cook for 7-9 minutes until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Cheese Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, egg, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix until well combined and set aside.
Assembly
3. Fill the Manicotti
Using a piping bag or a spoon, carefully fill each manicotti tube with the cheese filling. Ensure the tubes are completely filled.
4. Prepare the Baking Dish
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
5. Arrange the Manicotti
Place the filled manicotti tubes in a single layer over the marinara sauce in the baking dish.
6. Add Sauces
Pour the alfredo sauce over the manicotti, ensuring each tube is covered. Then spoon the remaining marinara sauce over the top.
7. Bake the Manicotti
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and slightly golden.
Serving
8. Garnish and Serve
Remove the manicotti from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped basil before serving.
