Ingredients
12 oz cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cups mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups fresh spinach
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup vegetable or chicken broth
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt & black pepper, to taste
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
Instructions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cheese ravioli and cook according to package directions until tender. Drain and set aside, reserving about ¼ cup of pasta water.
-
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender.
-
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, just until fragrant.
-
Pour in the heavy cream and vegetable or chicken broth. Stir well to combine, scraping up any bits from the pan.
-
Add Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, stirring until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy. Simmer for 2–3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
-
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
-
Add the spinach and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet. Stir until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften.
-
Gently fold in the cooked ravioli, tossing to coat evenly in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen it.
-
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
-
Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan and parsley for a fresh finish.
Notes
-
Use sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil for the best flavor.
-
Fresh or frozen ravioli both work well—just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
-
For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for heavy cream.
-
Add red pepper flakes for a touch of spice.
