Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 18 oz Cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced thinly
- 1 medium Yellow bell pepper, sliced thinly
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tbsp Fresh basil, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the ravioli according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
Add the sliced red and yellow bell peppers to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are softened.
Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until they begin to soften and release their juices.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Toss in the chopped basil and stir to combine.
Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet. Gently toss to coat the ravioli in the sauce, adding a splash of reserved pasta water as needed to loosen the mixture.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the ravioli and give it a final toss. Remove from heat.
Serve the ravioli warm, garnished with additional fresh basil and extra Parmesan cheese, if desired. Enjoy immediately.
