Main Ingredients
- 1 lb mushroom ravioli
- 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 cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Extra grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
- Cook the ravioli: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the mushroom ravioli and cook according to the package instructions, usually around 3-4 minutes, until they float to the surface and are tender. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté mushrooms and garlic: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, sautéing until the mushrooms turn golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Prepare the creamy sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth to the skillet with mushrooms. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toss ravioli in sauce: Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet with the creamy mushroom sauce. Gently toss to coat the ravioli evenly with the sauce.
- Serve and garnish: Plate the ravioli and sauce while hot. Garnish with extra grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for added color and flavor. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
- Use fresh mushrooms like cremini or shiitake for a deeper flavor.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, simmer it a bit longer until desired consistency is reached.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
