Ingredients

For the Sauce:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for sautéing and flavor
  • 1 tablespoon butter adds richness to the sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth for depth of flavor
  • 1 cup heavy cream makes the sauce luxuriously creamy
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice brightens the dish
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes for a burst of sweetness and color
  • 1 pound refrigerated cheese ravioli the star of the dish
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach packed
  • 1 bunch fresh basil optional for garnish
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Freshly grated parmesan cheese optional for finishing touches

Instructions

Directions

  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add 3 minced cloves of garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant, being careful not to let it brown.
  • Pour in 1/2 cup of chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for a couple of minutes to reduce slightly. Then, stir in 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Mix well until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
  • Toss in 1/4 cup of sun-dried tomatoes and let them simmer in the sauce for about 2 minutes, allowing their flavor to meld with the cream.
  • Carefully add 1 pound of refrigerated cheese ravioli to the skillet. Cook according to the package instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes, stirring gently to coat the ravioli in the sauce.
  • Once the ravioli are nearly cooked, add 1 cup of packed fresh baby spinach to the skillet. Stir until the spinach has wilted and everything is well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remove the skillet from heat. If desired, garnish with fresh basil and freshly grated parmesan cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Creamy Tuscan Ravioli!
