Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package lobster ravioli
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Red pepper flakes (optional, for a hint of heat)
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster ravioli and cook according to the package instructions, typically about 3-4 minutes or until they float to the top. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until melted. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Stir in the heavy cream and broth, then bring to a gentle simmer. Add the lemon juice and zest, continuing to simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Gently add the cooked ravioli to the skillet, tossing to coat with the sauce. Mix in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts and combines into the sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.
- Plate the ravioli and sauce, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy immediately with a side of crusty bread.
