For the Ravioli

Method
 

Cooking the Ravioli
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster ravioli and cook according to package instructions (usually about 4-5 minutes) until they float to the top. Drain and set aside.
Making the Lemon Butter Sauce
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
  2. Stir in the lemon zest and juice, allowing the flavors to meld together—typically about 2 minutes.
  3. Carefully whisk in the heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer for about 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Combining and Serving
  1. Gently add the cooked ravioli to the skillet, tossing to coat them in the lemon butter sauce. You want each piece to be lovingly enveloped in flavor!
  2. Plate the ravioli and garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy the deliciousness!

Notes

If using frozen ravioli, ensure it’s from a reputable brand for the best results. Adjust the lemon juice and zest to your preference for desired tanginess. Optionally, add sautéed shrimp or scallops for extra protein.
