We’re talking tender pasta pillows stuffed with ricotta cheese and hearty spinach (already pretty awesome on their own), cloaked in a creamy, cheesy, lemon-spiked sauce. It’s gonna be a bright, bright, sunshiny meal!

Cooking Oil
• Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Halve bell pepper; remove stem and seeds. Cut tomato into six wedges. Peel and thinly slice garlic. Zest and quarter lemon.
• Place bell pepper and tomato on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange bell pepper cut sides down. • Roast on middle rack until veggies are softened and browned, 20-25 minutes. • Let bell pepper cool slightly, then transfer to a cutting board and thinly slice into strips.
While veggies roast, open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid. Season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken or sausage* and cook, stirring frequently, until cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.
• When veggies are almost done, gently add ravioli to pot of boiling water. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente and floating to the top, 4-5 minutes. • Reserve 1⁄2 cup pasta cooking water (1 cup for 4 servings), then drain.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes.
Use pan used for chicken or sausage here.
• Add stock concentrate, cream cheese, sour cream, half the Parmesan (save the rest for serving), 1⁄4 cup reserved pasta cooking water (1⁄2 cup for 4 servings), and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) to pan with garlic. • Whisk until combined, then stir in roasted tomato and sliced bell pepper. • Add a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Stir in chicken or sausage along with tomato and bell pepper.
• Add drained ravioli to pan with sauce; gently toss until thoroughly coated. TIP: If necessary, stir in more pasta cooking water a splash at a time until ravioli are coated in a creamy sauce. • Divide between plates and top with remaining Parmesan and lemon zest to taste. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
