Ingredients (Serves 6-8)
- 1 family-size package cheese ravioli
- 2 chicken breasts, cubed
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese (+ extra for topping)
- ¼ cup sun-dried tomatoes
- Salt & pepper (or your favorite chicken seasoning)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Season & Cook the Chicken:
- Season cubed chicken breasts with salt, pepper, or preferred seasoning.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken until browned and fully cooked (about 6-8 minutes). Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Creamy Ravioli Sauce:
- In the same skillet, add heavy cream, chicken broth, cheese ravioli, shredded Parmesan, and sun-dried tomatoes.
- Stir well and cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ravioli is tender and the sauce thickens.
- Combine & Finish:
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, stirring to coat everything in the creamy sauce.
- Top with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley (if using).
- Serve Hot:
- Plate up and serve immediately — this dish is best enjoyed fresh and hot!
Notes:
- Protein swap: Use shrimp or Italian sausage instead of chicken for a twist.
- Add veggies: Stir in spinach or mushrooms for extra flavor.
- Make it lighter: Swap half-and-half for heavy cream to reduce the richness.
This easy skillet chicken and ravioli recipe is perfect for busy weeknights or a special dinner that feels fancy without the fuss. It’s no wonder people call it “Marry Me Chicken” — it’s love at first bite!
