Ingredients
For the Crispy Ravioli
- 1 package refrigerated cheese ravioli about 20 oz
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp milk
- ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ¼ tsp smoked paprika
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Olive oil spray or avocado oil spray
For the Marinara Dipping Sauce
- 1 ½ cups marinara sauce
- 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ tsp balsamic vinegar
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- Pinch of red pepper flakes optional
- Fresh basil or parsley optional for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with oil.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
- In a second shallow bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, Italian breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Dip each ravioli into the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off, then press it into the breadcrumb mixture until well coated on both sides.
- Arrange the coated ravioli in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 10 minutes to help the coating set.
- Lightly spray the tops of the ravioli with oil. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, spray lightly again, and bake for another 4 to 6 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
- While the ravioli bakes, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes if using.
- Serve the crispy ravioli warm with the marinara dipping sauce. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if
