Creamy Tuscan Ravioli Recipe
With oil from a jar of sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and julienned sun-dried tomatoes, Creamy Tuscan Ravioli makes a delicious main course for any day of the week.
Ingredients
Method
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter with the sun-dried tomato oil.
- Add the chopped garlic, julienned sun-dried tomatoes, salt, cracked black pepper, and crushed red pepper to the skillet. Sautรฉ until the garlic turns golden and releases its aroma.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook for a few minutes to enhance its flavor and develop a rich color.
- Deglaze the pan by adding the fresh lemon juice and white wine. Allow the alcohol to cook off, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the chicken stock and heavy cream, then increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer.
- Add the freshly grated parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese to the skillet, stirring until it melts and incorporates into the sauce.
- Simmer the sauce until it begins to thicken, maintaining a gentle simmer for about 5-7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the baby spinach and al dente ravioli to the skillet. Let the pasta water drip into the sauce, enhancing its flavor.
- Cover the skillet for approximately one minute, allowing the spinach to wilt and the ravioli to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
- Transfer the creamy sun-dried tomato ravioli to a family-size bowl, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and serve immediately.
