Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pound cheese ravioli ricotta or your favorite filling
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1.1 pounds ripe cherry tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup basil leaves packed

Instructions
 

  • Before you start to cook, mince the garlic and roughly chop the basil leaves.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Place cherry tomatoes in a single layer. Cover and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until they start to burst. Press on the back of the tomatoes with a fork to release the juices.
  • Add salt, black pepper, chili flakes, Italian seasoning and minced garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant.
  • In the meantime, add ravioli to the pot with boiling water and cook, for 2 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup cooking water.
  • Add basil leaves to the skillet, stir to combine. Deglaze with ½ cup cooking water, cook for 1 minute. Toss in ravioli and simmer for 1 minute more. Add more cooking water, if needed. Taste and adjust salt.
  • Serve immediately, preferably topped with parmesan and a leafy salad on the side. Enjoy!
