Ingredients

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the ravioli according to package instructions. Drain and set aside. You can drizzle a little olive oil over the ravioli and stir so it doesn’t stick together.
  • To make the sauce, melt the butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the flour and slowly pour in the broth. Whisk in the lemon zest and lemon juice.
  • Pour in the heavy cream and whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the heat to medium low and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens a bit.
  • Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Add the chopped spinach and frozen peas and cook for 2 minutes or until spinach is wilted. The sauce should be thick enough at this point, if you want it thicker, you can cook for a few more minutes, stirring to help it thicken up.
  • Stir in the cooked ravioli and cook for 1 minute or until ravioli is heated through.
  • Plate the ravioli, spooning the sauce and peas over the top. Garnish with crushed red pepper, basil or chives, and extra Parmesan cheese, if desired. Enjoy!
