πŸ›’ Ingredients

  • 1 lb cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 small shallot, finely minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • Fresh chives, chopped, for garnish

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions

1. Cook the Ravioli

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the cheese ravioli according to the package instructions until tender. Drain well and set aside.

2. Sear the Shrimp

Heat the butter and avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the shrimp with sea salt and black pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and fully cooked. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

3. SautΓ© the Aromatics

Using the same skillet, add the minced shallot and cook for about 1 minute until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Make the Parmesan Cream Sauce

Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and dried basil. Simmer for 3–4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce is smooth, creamy, and slightly thickened.

5. Combine and Serve

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet along with the prepared ravioli. Gently toss everything together until the pasta is evenly coated in the creamy Parmesan sauce. Simmer for 2–3 minutes, then garnish with freshly chopped chives and serve immediately.
