What to do with the remnant of your ricotta?! (and chicken!?)

How many times do you left food, and than forgot it in your fridge for days until the only thing to do is throw it away (unless you want to experience a visit to the nearest hospital!)?

Considering that it's understandable that you don't feel like eating the same food for days and considering that throw food away it's a bad act here I am with an easy recipe! I made it yesterday for dinner to use remnant ricotta and chicken!

(I apologize for the bad quality of the photos, but it was night and my boyfriend was very very hungry "I don't wanna photos....I want to eat!" Yes sweetheart, can you just hold the white paper more on the left so that the light would be better?" "...")
