Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Prepare the ravioli according to package directions. (Approximately 8-10 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

While the ravioli is cooking, combine the cooked shrimp, Alfredo sauce, lemon juice, and lemon peel in a small saucepan. (Approximately 2 minutes)

03

Step
7 mins

Heat the shrimp mixture over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Be careful not to boil, as this can cause the sauce to separate. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Drain the cooked ravioli and divide it among serving plates.

05

Step
1 mins

Spoon the shrimp and lemon cream sauce over the ravioli.

06

Step
1 mins

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese makes a wonderful addition to this dish.
If you prefer a richer sauce, use heavy cream instead of light Alfredo sauce.
This recipe works well with other types of pasta, such as fettuccine or linguine.
To prevent the shrimp from becoming rubbery, avoid overcooking it in the sauce.
