Pink Vodka Cream Sauce with Shrimp with Lobster Ravioli: (adapted from Rachel Ray on the Food Network)
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, once around the pan in a slow stream
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • cloves garlic, minced
  • shallots, minced
  • 1/2 cup vodka
  • 1 cup of Italian Corner Tomato Basil Sauce (8 ounces)
  • Coarse salt and pepper
  • 24 Lobster Ravioli 
  • 12 Shrimp Peeled and De-veined
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons of Supreme Ricotta Cheese

  • Crusty bread, for passing

Directions

Heat a large skillet over moderate heat. Add oil, butter, garlic, shallots and shrimp. Gently saute for 3 to 5 minutes to develop their sweetness. Add vodka to the pan and reduce by half, this will take 2 or 3 minutes. Add the Italian Corner Sauce, Supreme Ricotta Cheese and Cream bring sauce to a bubble then reduce heat to simmer. Season with salt and pepper.
While sauce simmers, cook pasta in salted boiling water until cooked to al dente (with a bite to it). While pasta cooks, prepare your salad or other side dishes.
Stir cream into sauce and turn up the heat to medium. When sauce returns to a bubble, remove it from the heat. Drain pasta. Toss hot pasta with sauce. Pass pasta with crusty bread and a fresh salad!
