Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 450 grams asparagus, trimmed and cut into 5-centimeter pieces
  • 300 grams cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 60 milliliters chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 15 grams fresh basil, chopped
  • 15 grams fresh parsley, chopped
  • 25 grams grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving
  • 570 grams refrigerated cheese ravioli

Instructions

  1. Cook the cheese ravioli according to the package instructions. Once done, drain and set aside.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Add the asparagus pieces to the pan and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
  4. Introduce the halved cherry tomatoes and minced garlic to the pan. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for 2 minutes.
  6. Add the cooked ravioli to the pan and gently toss to combine with the sautéed vegetables and sauce.
  7. Mix in the chopped basil, parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. Continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is heated through.
  8. Serve warm, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.

Notes

For added flavor, roast the asparagus before adding it to the dish. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can freeze the assembled dish before cooking.
