Lobster Ravioli (by Maria)
 
Ravioli Filling:
1 vidalia onion, diced finely
1 garlic clove, chopped finely
1 pound Maine lobster meat
½ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon dried chives
¼ teaspoon dill weed
¼ teaspoon pepper
pinch of salt
¼ cup goat cheese (can use ricotta)

Saute all ingredients except goat cheese and put in medium bowl in the refrigerator to cool. When cooled, add ¼ cup goat cheese or ricotta cheese.

Pasta Dough:
1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
¼ cup spinach cooked, well-drained, very finely chopped
2 Tablespoons water
½ teaspoon light olive oil

Mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl. On a floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic (8-10 min). Cover and let dough rest for 10 minutes. Divide dough in half and roll out each segment to about 1/16” thickness. Use round 2” cookie cutter and set aside rounds. Let dough rest additional 10 minutes. For ravioli assembly, place a teaspoon of filling on pasta round, lightly dampen edge of circle, fold over to make a half-circle shape and pinch edges together. Place in boiling water for 6 minutes.

Sauce:
1 small can artichoke hearts
1 vidalia onion, chopped finely
1 clove garlic, chopped finely
1 16 ounce can diced tomatoes
¼ cup white Zinfandel wine
½ cup whipped cream
Fresh basil, dried dill weed or chives to garnish

Remove all outer and tough leaves from canned artichoke hearts. Sauté hearts along with onion and garlic until transparent. Add tomatoes and wine. Turn heat off and add cream, stirring constantly until well blended.

Ladle sauce on each plate, add 6-8 ravioli and garnish with freshly chopped basil or dried dill weed and chives.

I like to serve this dish with baby greens and a light honey-mustard dressing and sour dough bread.
