Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound frozen cheese ravioli use your favorite
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 chicken breasts boneless, skinless, cut into bite-size pieces
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes adjust to taste
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • 6 green onions chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese grated, plus extra for serving

Equipment

  • 12" skillet
  • pot (for boiling ravioli)
  • Colander
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cutting board and knife

Method
 

  1. Cook the frozen ravioli according to package instructions; drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water, and set ravioli aside.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large 12" skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the bite-size chicken pieces to the skillet and season with salt, pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
  4. Sauté the chicken until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes.
  5. Add the minced garlic, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chopped green onions, and chopped parsley to the skillet and cook, stirring, for 1–2 minutes.
  6. Pour in 1 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup chicken broth, stir to combine, and simmer for 2–3 minutes to thicken slightly.
  7. Add the cooked ravioli and 1 cup grated Parmesan to the skillet and gently toss to coat in the sauce; add reserved pasta water a few tablespoons at a time if the sauce is too thick.
  8. Cook for another 1–2 minutes to heat everything through, then serve immediately with additional Parmesan if desired.

Notes

  • Reduce or omit red pepper flakes for a milder dish.
  • Substitute cherry or canned diced tomatoes if you don’t have sun-dried tomatoes.
  • Warm leftovers gently on the stove with a splash of broth or cream.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.
  • Use pre-grated or freshly grated Parmesan as preferred.
