Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef or ground pork or Italian sausage
- olive oil
- small white onion, diced
- 4 tsp minced garlic
- 28 oz can crushed or diced tomatoes
- 1 8 oz can tomato sauce
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 18 oz refrigerated ravioli
- 8 oz or 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- fresh, chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Add a little olive oil to a large cast iron skillet. Let it heat over medium heat, then add in the meat, onions, and garlic. Break the meat up with a sturdy spoon as it cooks, stirring occasionally, until the meat's cooked through. Strain the meat mixture to remove any excess grease, and return it to the skillet.
- Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, broth, and ravioli to the skillet. Stir everything to evenly combine, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat so that the skillet's simmering. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pasta's cooked & the sauce has thickened considerably.
- Remove the skillet from heat, and stir in both of the cheeses. Let the skillet rest for 2-3 minutes before scooping and serving. Top with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley & a bit of extra Parmensan (if desired) for a garnish when plated.
