Ingredients

Scale

Lobster Ravioli:

  • 1 package lobster ravioli

Lemon Butter Sauce:

  • 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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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).
  5. 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.
