Ingredients

• 18 pieces Ravioli (store-bought or homemade, any filling of choice)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Walnuts, roughly chopped
• 6 leaves Fresh sage leaves, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.25 cup Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli and cook according to the package instructions (typically 3-5 minutes for fresh ravioli). Once cooked, drain the ravioli, toss with 1 teaspoon of olive oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Allow it to bubble and foam for about 2-3 minutes until it begins to turn golden brown and gives off a nutty aroma, being careful not to burn it.

Step 3

Stir in the chopped walnuts and toast them in the butter for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are lightly golden and fragrant.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sliced sage leaves to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute, just until the garlic is fragrant and the sage softens.

Step 5

Carefully add the cooked ravioli to the skillet and gently toss to coat it in the buttery walnut mixture. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring the ravioli is warmed through.

Step 6

Season the dish with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 7

Transfer the ravioli to serving plates and sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, nutty ravioli dish!
