Instructions
1-Gathering and Prepping Ingredients: Before you dive into cooking this Creamy Sun Dried Chicken Ravioli, take a moment to prepare all your ingredients. This step helps everything run smoothly and ensures your creamy chicken pasta turns out just right. Chop the sun dried tomatoes and mince the garlic ahead of time for a seamless process.
2-Step action: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat to start building flavors. Add the chicken pieces and season them with salt, pepper, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the chicken is browned and fully done, which takes about 5-7 minutes, for a juicy base to your dish.
3-Building the Sauce and Combining Elements: Once the chicken is ready, stir in the minced garlic, chopped sun dried tomatoes, green onions, and fresh parsley. Let them cook together for about 2 minutes to blend the tastes. This step is where the magic happens, turning simple ingredients into a sun dried chicken ravioli thatβs full of depth.
4-Step action: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, then simmer for 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld. Cook the ravioli separately according to the package instructions, drain it, and reserve some pasta water. Finally, add the ravioli and grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet, tossing gently to coat everything in the sauce for a perfect finish to your creamy sun dried tomato chicken ravioli recipe.
5-Step action: If the sauce seems too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to get it just right. For more ideas, check out our easy chicken spaghetti recipe for additional chicken pasta inspiration. This internal link can help if youβre looking to vary your meals with similar flavors.
