Creamy Pesto Ravioli Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Whisk together the heavy cream, pesto, flour, red chile flakes, 1/2 cup warm water and a pinch of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Working on a lightly floured surface, divide the dough in half and roll each half to make a rope about 3/4-inch-thick. Cut each rope in to 4 equal parts. Twist each piece into a knot, making 8 knots.
• Spray a large oval baking dish or large deep-dish pie pan with nonstick cooking spray. Pour a third of the sauce into the bottom of the dish. Layer with half of the ravioli in a single layer. Top with another third of the sauce, then layer with the remaining ravioli and top with the remaining sauce.
• Place the knots along the inside edge of the pan, on top of the ravioli. Spray the knots with the cooking spray and sprinkle with garlic salt.
• Bake until the garlic knots are a rich golden brown and the pasta sauce is bubbly, 40 to 50 minutes. Top with Parmesan and torn basil if using.

Steps:

• Combine whipping cream and pesto sauce in a saucepan; add capers.
• Cook mixture over low heat until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.
• Cook pasta according to package directions, and drain.
• Toss pasta with sauce, and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet on the grill over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 chopped onion and sauté about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, add 2 sliced garlic cloves and cook 1 minute. Stir in 1 pound refrigerated ravioli and 2 cups water and shimmy the pan to settle the ravioli. Cover the grill and cook, stirring once or twice, until the ravioli are tender and the liquid has reduced to a thin layer, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1/2 cup pesto; top with basil and Parmesan.

Steps:
