Sauce Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic: In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it brown to keep the flavor fresh and sweet.
  2. Add Heavy Cream and Simmer: Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine with the butter and garlic. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to thicken slightly, about 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
  3. Incorporate Parmesan and Seasonings: Reduce the heat to low and gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese while stirring continuously until the cheese fully melts and the sauce becomes creamy. Stir in the Italian seasoning. Season the sauce with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Finish and Garnish: Remove the sauce from heat once it reaches a smooth, velvety consistency. Spoon the sauce over your cooked ravioli. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving to add a fresh, vibrant finish.

Notes

  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best texture and flavor as pre-grated cheese may not melt as smoothly.
  • Keep the heat low when adding cheese to prevent the sauce from becoming grainy.
  • If the sauce thickens too much, thin it with a little milk or reserved pasta water.
  • This sauce pairs wonderfully with cheese, spinach, or mushroom ravioli.
