For the Lobster Ravioli:
- Fresh lobster meat (about 8 oz.)
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh pasta sheets (or pre-made ravioli wrappers)
For the Zesty Lemon Butter Sauce:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions:
For the Lobster Ravioli:
- Prepare the Filling:
In a bowl, combine the lobster meat, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth. - Assemble the Ravioli:
Lay out one sheet of pasta. Spoon small amounts of the lobster filling onto the pasta, leaving space between each spoonful. Top with another pasta sheet, and press around the filling to seal the ravioli. Cut between each mound of filling with a knife or a ravioli cutter to form individual ravioli. - Cook the Ravioli:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the ravioli into the water and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside.
For the Zesty Lemon Butter Sauce:
- Make the Sauce:
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. - Add Liquids:
Add the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Let it reduce slightly for about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper to taste. - Finish the Sauce:
Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet and toss them gently to coat in the sauce. Let them cook in the sauce for another 1-2 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Serve:
Plate the ravioli, drizzle with the zesty lemon butter sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy your Lobster Ravioli in Zesty Lemon Butter Sauce!
