Delight in our creamy Tuscan ravioli. Pillowy ravioli enveloped in a rich, creamy sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach—a decadent Italian-inspired dish!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup chicken stock or vegetable, see notes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup fresh baby spinach packed
- 2 packages of ravioli 9-10 ounce
- ⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil (reserve 1 tablespoon oil)
- Freshly grated parmesan cheese + basil for topping
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Salt the water liberally, then add the ravioli and cook for 1 minute less than package directions, drain and set aside.
- Start on the sauce while the ravioli is boiling. Add the butter and 1 tablespoon of sun-dried tomato oil to a large sauté pan over medium heat. Once melted, add the garlic and allow it to cook for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the onion powder, Italian seasoning, lemon juice, chicken stock, heavy cream, and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet and allow for it to become smooth and heat through; about 1-2 minutes.
- When the ravioli is done, add it to the prepared sauce, stir to combine. The sauce should thicken significantly once the ravioli sits for a minute. Top with spinach, basil, and cover the pan and allow for it to just wilt. Once wilted, stir to combine, and top with freshly grated parmesan before serving!
Notes
- If you don’t have stock on hand, you could easily use pasta water to help thin the sauce!
- Ravioli flavors that work well with this Tuscan cream sauce: chicken and mushroom, sausage and kale, spinach and mozzarella, lobster or seafood medley, porcini mushroom (a personal fave), spinach and ricotta, and four cheese
