Baked Ravioli

baked ravioli made with ground italian sausage, onion, garlic, marinara, spices, cream and mozzarella topped with parsley
  • Serves:  6
  • Prep Time:  20 min
  • Cook Time:  45 min

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage
  • 1 cup diced yellow onion, (about 1 medium onion)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 (32-ounce) jar marinara sauce, store-bought or homemade
  • 1 (14-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 (20-ounce) bag fresh cheese ravioli
  • 2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
  • Minced fresh parsley, for serving

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F with a rack in the center position.
  2. Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, onion, and garlic and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the sausage is cooked through and onion is softened, about 10 minutes. Add the marinara, crushed tomatoes, salt, Italian seasoning, and heavy cream and cook, stirring, until fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Stir in the ravioli until evenly distributed.
  3. Transfer the pasta and sauce to a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Evenly sprinkle with the mozzarella, then cover loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the baking dish from the oven. Turn on the broiler. Return the baking dish to the oven, uncovered, and broil for about 3 minutes, or until the cheese is lightly browned and the sauce is bubbling. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve family-style.
