Description
A rich and creamy lobster ravioli dish that’s perfect for any special occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound lobster ravioli (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup cooked lobster meat, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- a pinch red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ravioli: Cook the lobster ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Make the Sauce: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic, sautéing until the shallots are translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Add the white wine to the skillet, allowing it to simmer and reduce by half. Stir in the heavy cream, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Combine Lobster and Ravioli: Add the cooked lobster meat to the sauce, stirring gently to coat. Carefully add the cooked ravioli to the skillet, ensuring each piece is covered with the creamy sauce.
- Season and Serve: Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes, adjusting to taste. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice to the sauce.
- If making homemade lobster ravioli, prepare the pasta and filling ahead of time to save on cooking time.
- To enhance the richness of the dish, you can add a touch of truffle oil before serving.
- Use fresh, high-quality Parmesan cheese for the best flavor. Grate it just before adding to the sauce.
