This Ravioli with Brown Butter is such a fabulous, super-quick option for a weeknight dinner. And it’s especially good to make in the summer when tomatoes are ripe and sweet and perfect.
My son has always dubbed ravioli as his favorite dinner choice ever. It figures that he chooses something that is usually purchased already made either frozen or fresh. That makes dinner easy for me, but I generally like to jazz things like that up a bit.
This recipe drizzles brown butter and basil with lightly sauteed tomatoes over freshly cooked ravioli. It couldn’t be simpler or more delicious. And this recipe happens to be one of the recipes in my cookbook!
Hey, remember this? The Recipe Girl Cookbook is my cookbook that was published a few years ago. It’s still going strong on Amazon all these years later. It’s filled with 190+ family friendly recipes for all meals of the day. Most of the recipes in the book are NOT on the website. A few of my favorites are Perfect Fluffy Pancakes, Grilled Romaine with Blue Cheese, Tomato & Bacon, Blueberry-Pineapple Tequila Punch, Coconut Ginger Rice, Sweet Chili Pulled Pork, Epic Shrimp Tacos with Chipotle Cream, Bacon Macaroni and Cheese, Caramel Apple Pie Crust Cookies, Chocolate Chip Butter Cake and Cinnamon Bun Bread Pudding.

The butter is melted and simmered until it begins to brown. Have you ever tasted brown butter? It turns into a nutty and sweet, addicting sort of sauce. When you add fresh cherry tomatoes to the pan, they wilt rather quickly and begin to burst. That’s when you take the sauce off the heat and add it to the ravioli. It’s SO GOOD.
This is one of those recipes that is good to make when you just want to pick up a few ingredients and you don’t want to have to put a lot of effort into dinner. My family loves this Ravioli with Brown Butter!

Cheese Ravioli with Brown Butter and Fresh Tomato Sauce
Here’s a great way to jazz up cheese ravioli!
- 2 9-ounce packages fresh ravioli

- 2 cups cherry or pear tomatoes
- 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh basil
- salt & freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

While the ravioli is cooking, prepare the sauce. In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, add the tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes begin to soften and burst and the butter turns brown, about 7 minutes. Stir in the basil. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.

Serve the brown butter- tomato sauce over the freshly cooked ravioli. Sprinkle individual servings with cheese.
