Creamy Garlic Parmesan Ravioli Sauce 2025 12 25 130434 150x150 1

Creamy Garlic Parmesan Ravioli Sauce for Busy Weeknights

A creamy, garlicky sauce that comes together in under 20 minutes, perfect for transforming store-bought ravioli into a comforting, restaurant-worthy meal.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Sauté the minced garlic in the melted butter for about 30–60 seconds, until fragrant — don’t let it brown.
  3. Pour in the heavy cream and stir, bringing it to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add the Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper, then simmer for 2–3 minutes to thicken slightly.
  5. Lower the heat and whisk in the grated Parmesan a little at a time until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper as needed.
  7. Toss the cooked ravioli in the sauce until well coated, using a splash of pasta water if you need to loosen the sauce.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best texture. Reheat gently with a splash of cream or milk to maintain smoothness.
