Easy Butternut Squash Ravioli with Sage Butter Sauce

🧂 Ingredients

• 14 ounces butternut squash

  peeled and chopped (about 3 cups)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

  divided
• 3/4 teaspoon salt

  divided
• 1/2 cup ricotta cheese*
• 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese*
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• pinch nutmeg
• 10 ounces wonton wrappers

  ~40 wrappers
• 4 ounces 8 tablespoons butter*
• 1 large garlic clove

  minced
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh sage leaves
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• 2 Toss the squash with the olive oil, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4
  teaspoon pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes until just
  softened.
• 3 Place the cooked squash in a food processor [https://amzn.to/4fY3HkV] along with
  the ricotta, parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and nutmeg. Process until creamy and
  smooth. Taste, adding more salt and pepper as needed.
• 4 Place a wonton wrapper on a hard surface and place a heaping teaspoon of filling
  in the center. Wet the edge of the wrapper with water, then fold in half to make
  a triangle. Seal with your hands until set, then set aside and repeat with the
  remaining wontons. You should get 38-40 wontons.
• 5 Bring a pot of water to a boil.
• 6 While the water is boiling, make the sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan over
  medium-low heat. When the butter just begins to bubble, add the minced garlic
  clove and stir, until just fragrant, about 1 minute. Add in the sage and
  continue to cook over low heat for 2 minutes, until the butter just begins to
  brown and smells nutty. Add in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and salt.
  Taste, adjusting salt and pepper as needed.
• 7 Add the ravioli to the water and boil for 2-3 minutes, until the ravioli floats
  on top. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper while you cook the
  remaining ravioli.
• 8 Divide the ravioli into 4 shallow bowls and drizzle with the butter sauce.
  Garnish with parmesan cheese, if desired.
