How to Make Asian Chicken Ravioli With V8 Creamy Tomato Sauce
- In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground chicken, 2 tablespoons tamari, 2 green onions (finely chopped), 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 1 medium thinly sliced red onion. Marinate for at least 6-8 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Sauté the thinly sliced red onion until softened.
- Reduce heat to low. Add 1 (28 ounce) can V8 juice (spicy or regular) and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
- Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
- Lay out one wonton wrapper. Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center.
- Brush the edges of the wrapper with water.
- Top with another wonton wrapper and press the edges firmly to seal, creating a ravioli.
- Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Gently add the ravioli and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
- Remove ravioli with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Serve the cooked ravioli in bowls, topped with the creamy V8 sauce, toasted pine nuts, fresh basil, and black pepper.
- Enjoy! (Optional: tear fresh basil into the sauce for extra flavor.)
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
