Gamberi e Ravioli in Crema (Shrimp and Ravioli in Cream)
Indulge in a rich, creamy seafood dish that's perfect for any evening!
Begin by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add 2 minced cloves of garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add 250 grams of shrimp to the skillet, season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and cook for about 5 minutes until the shrimp turn pink.
While the shrimp cooks, bring a pot of salted water to a boil, then add 250 grams of ravioli and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes.
Once the shrimp are cooked, pour in 200 milliliters of heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir well and allow it to thicken for about 3 minutes.
Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet, along with 50 grams of grated parmesan cheese, and toss everything together gently until well coated in the creamy sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in 3 tablespoons of chopped parsley for freshness.
Serve hot, garnishing with extra parmesan cheese if desired.
