Ingredients

To make this flavorful One-Pot Ravioli dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• Ravioli (I’m using ricotta and spinach ravioli)
• Boneless skinless chicken thighs
• Chicken broth/water
• Tomato paste
• Spinach
• Onion
• Low fat sour cream
• Garlic cloves
• Oil
• Seasonings: paprika, granulated garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables and Chicken

Begin by gathering all your ingredients for a streamlined cooking experience.

• Chop the Vegetables: Slice the onion into thin strips, mince the garlic cloves, and dice the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. Have everything ready before you start cooking to ensure a smooth preparation process.

Step 2: Sauté the Chicken and Vegetables

In a large pot or deep skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.

• Cook the Aromatics: Once the oil is shimmering, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-4 minutes until fragrant and the onions turn translucent.
• Add the Chicken: Incorporate the diced chicken into the pot along with your seasonings. Stir everything together, cooking for about 3-5 minutes.

Step 3: Create the Sauce and Incorporate the Ravioli

Next, it’s time to make the sauce.

• Mix in the Sauce Ingredients: Stir in 1 tablespoon of tomato paste, followed by 1 cup of chicken broth (or water) and a couple of tablespoons of sour cream. Mix well to combine, then cover the pot. Let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
• Cook the Ravioli: After the sauce has thickened slightly, gently add the ravioli to the pot. Cook for about 2 minutes, then fold in the fresh spinach. Continue to cook for another minute or so, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts and the ravioli is heated through.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

To finish, serve the dish hot in bowls or plates.

• Add the Finishing Touches: Garnish each serving with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh basil, if desired.

Enjoy!
