Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Equipment

  • Large skillet with lid
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula or wooden spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream or whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes drained if packed in oil
  • 1 pound refrigerated cheese ravioli
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach packed
  • fresh basil optional, to taste
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • freshly grated Parmesan cheese optional, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat the skillet over medium-high and add the olive oil and butter until the butter melts.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Pour in the broth, heavy cream, and lemon juice, then add the sun-dried tomatoes and refrigerated ravioli; stir to combine.
  • Bring the mixture to a gentle bubble, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Uncover and stir the ravioli; if the sauce is still too thin, cover again and cook 1 more minute until slightly thicker.
  • Stir in the packed baby spinach and optional basil, cover, and let wilt for 1–2 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan if using; serve immediately.

Notes

  • You do not need to boil the refrigerated ravioli before adding it to the skillet.
  • The starch released while the ravioli cooks will help thicken the sauce.
  • I used sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil and drained them before adding.
  • Adjust salt and pepper at the end to taste.
