Make this indulgent, restaurant-style Creamy Tuscan Ravioli in under 30 minutes. This easy weeknight dinner features tender cheese ravioli tossed in a velvety garlic cream sauce with spinach and sun-dried tomatoes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound Italian sausage, casing removed (optional)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. If using sausage, cook the Italian sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up until browned. Drain excess fat. If not using sausage, skip this step.
  2. Add the olive oil to the skillet. Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and Italian seasoning. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add the ravioli to the sauce. Cook according to package directions, usually 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the ravioli is tender.
  6. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes velvety.
  7. Add the fresh spinach. Stir until the spinach wilts completely into the sauce, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  8. Taste the dish and add salt and pepper as needed. Serve this quick Italian dinner immediately.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes instead of dry-packed.
  • If you want a tangier sauce, add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste when you add the garlic.
  • This recipe works well with cheese or spinach-filled ravioli.
