Ravioli
Sauce
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Garnish
- Extra Parmesan, for serving
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
- Cook Ravioli: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the mushroom ravioli according to the package instructions until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté Mushrooms and Garlic: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic and sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- Make Creamy Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, then stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Allow the sauce to simmer gently for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toss and Serve: Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet with the creamy mushroom sauce and gently toss to coat the pasta evenly. Serve immediately topped with extra Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Notes
- Use fresh mushrooms like cremini or white button for best flavor.
- For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
- Do not overcook the ravioli as they can become mushy; follow package instructions closely.
- Fresh parsley adds color and a fresh flavor contrast to the creamy sauce.
- To make it lighter, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream but expect a less rich sauce.
