Creamy Tuscan Ravioli Recipe
Ingredients:
-
1 tbsp. butter
-
1 tbsp. oil from a jar of sun-dried tomatoes
-
7 cloves of garlic, chopped
-
1/4 cup of julienned sun-dried tomatoes
-
Salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
-
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
-
1 tbsp. tomato paste
-
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
-
4 oz. white wine
-
1/2 cup chicken stock
-
1 cup heavy cream
-
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese
-
5 oz. baby spinach
-
Basil for garnish
-
1 lb. ravioli, cooked al dente in salted water
Step-by-Step Directions:
-
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. Sauté 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.
