Olive Garden Toasted Ravioli - Copycat Recipe

Ingredients

• 6-10 cups canola oil (as required by fryer)
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup progresso Italian style breadcrumbs
• 12 beef ravioli, premade (fresh, or if frozen, thawed)
• 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup marinara sauce, warmed

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat the oil in your deep fryer to 325 degrees.

2. 2

   Combine the beaten egg with the milk in shallow bowl. Pour the breadcrumbs into another shallow bowl.

3. 3

   Bread the ravioli by dipping each one in the milk and egg, then into the breadcrumbs. Arrange the breaded ravioli on a plate and let them sit for 5 minutes so that the breading sticks.

4. 4

   When the ravioli has rested, drop a handful into the oil. Depending on the size of your fryer, you may want to fry the ravioli in batches so they aren't too crowded. Fry the breaded ravioli for 1-2 minutes or until they're golden brown. Remove them to a draining rack or a paper-towel lined plate.

5. 5

   When all the raviolis are cooked, arrange them on a serving plate and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top. Serve the dish with a small bowl of warmed marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
