Ravioli Marsala

Whether they are sautéed to serve with a steak, folded into a risotto, or added to a quiche there is just something absolutely delicious about the earthiness of mushrooms.  In fact, one of my favorite dishes is chicken marsala, tender chicken breast smothered in a mushroom marsala sauce and served over pasta.  I used to only get it when we went out for dinner, and then I realized its super easy to make at home.

And then I had an epiphany – the chicken is just a vessel to get the mushrooms and sauce into my mouth, so what if I skipped that part, and went with pasta instead.

I adore stuffed pastas, especially ravioli, and had a box of Ravino Pasta’s Mushroom & Fontina ravioli in the freezer, and they were just calling out to be part of this dish.

I sautéed up some garlic and shallot in a little olive oil.  Then tossed in the mushrooms.  Tested a few mushrooms, you know to be sure of their sautéed perfection.  Added a little seasoning, some marsala, and some chicken stock.  The entire sauce came together in less than 10 minutes, and the pasta cooks in only 4 minutes!  Perfect for a quick week night meal.
