Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package lobster ravioli
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)

Instructions

  • Cook the Ravioli:
    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
    Add the lobster ravioli and cook according to package instructions (usually about 3–4 minutes, or until they float to the top).
    Drain and set aside.
  • Make the Lemon Butter Sauce:
    In a large skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat.
    Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
    Stir in the heavy cream and broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  • Add Lemon and Cheese:
    Stir in the lemon juice and zest, and let the sauce simmer for 2–3 minutes to slightly thicken.
    Add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.
  • Combine Ravioli and Sauce:
    Gently add the cooked lobster ravioli to the skillet, tossing to coat evenly in the sauce.
    Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
  • Serve:
    Plate the ravioli and drizzle with the sauce.
    Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and additional Parmesan if desired.

Notes

  • For a creamier sauce, you can add a little more heavy cream.
  • If you don’t have lobster ravioli, you can substitute with crab or shrimp ravioli for a similar flavor.
  • Garnishing with a bit of extra lemon zest enhances the fresh lemon flavor.
