Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Add cooked chicken, spinach, basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper; mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes.

5

In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, and half of the parmesan cheese; mix until smooth.

Spread a layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.

Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes; remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
