Ravioli With Sauteed Asparagus and Walnuts #dinner #vegetarian

This is a simple ravioli dish with sautéed asparagus and pecans hurled in a light and tasty spread lemon sauce. A speedy and delightful supper that lone takes 15 minutes to make.

Asparagus comes in numerous sizes – everything from pencil meager to full skewers. More slender asparagus is getting down to business better for this dish. On the off chance that you utilize thick asparagus, you should test for doneness. Thicker asparagus will take more time to cook.

The sauce is extremely easy to make – it's light and lemony and you make it in the container while you sauté the asparagus. It is anything but a substantial, oily sauce – it just gently coats the ravioli and asparagus.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 – 8 oz package of fresh ravioli – I used cheese ravioli
• ½ pound of asparagus – snap off the tough ends – chop asparagus into thirds or smaller.
• 1 half lemon – about 2 tablespoons
• 2 tbs butter
• ¼ cup walnut pieces
• 2 tbs minced parsley
• 6 twists of pepper
• 2 tbs grated parmesan plus some to serve at the table.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
2. While waiting for the water to boil, chop your asparagus into thirds (snap off tough white ends and discard). Mince parsley, squeeze lemon and measure out walnuts and butter.
3. In a large saute pan with a lid, melt 2 tbs of butter over medium heat until frothy. Add chopped asparagus to the pan, stir slightly to coat the asparagus with butter and cover the pan with a lid. The asparagus should be slightly damp when adding it to the pan. The pan should only be on medium heat so you don’t burn the butter or the asparagus. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes – depending on thickness of asparagus.
4. While asparagus is cooking, add ravioli to boiling water and cook as per the package instructions – my package said 4 minutes. Drain when done and add to a bowl.
5. Add the lemon juice and black pepper to the asparagus in the pan and turn the heat to high.  Cook and stir the asparagus and butter with the lemon juice for 30 seconds to create a light butter lemon sauce.  Remove from heat.
6. Add the asparagus and butter lemon sauce to the cooked ravioli in the bowl. There will not be a lot of sauce – you just want enough to lightly coat the ravioli.  Make sure to scrape out the saute pan.
7. Add walnuts, parsley and 2 tbs parmesan cheese – toss gently to combine.
