Servings: 6-8
Ingredients:
- 1 family-size package of cheese ravioli (about 20 oz)
- 2 chicken breasts, cubed
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (plus extra for topping)
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- Seasonings: salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, or your favorite chicken seasoning blend
- Garnish: fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken:
- Season the cubed chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning (or your favorite seasoning).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken cubes until golden and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Sauce and Cook the Pasta:
- In the same skillet, add the heavy cream, chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and ravioli. Stir to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until the sauce starts to thicken and the ravioli is tender, about 10-12 minutes. (If the sauce becomes too thick, add a bit more broth.)
- Combine and Finish:
- Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet and stir to combine with the pasta and sauce.
- Sprinkle a bit more shredded Parmesan on top and garnish with fresh parsley.
- Serve:
- Serve warm, and enjoy this creamy, comforting meal!
Tips:
- Optional Add-ins: For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a few cloves of minced garlic when cooking the chicken.
- Vegetables: Add in fresh spinach or steamed broccoli for a bit of color and nutrition.
