Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil , plus more for drizzling
- 1 large shallot , thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic , minced
- 1.5 cups baby bella or porcini mushrooms , coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 1/2 cups roast tomatoes , coarsely chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers , drained
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter
- 20 ounces lobster ravioli
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon pine nuts , toasted

Instructions
- In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil. Add the shallots, sauteing for 2 minutes until they start to soften. Add the garlic, sauteing for an additional minute.
- Add the mushrooms, tossing to coat in oil. Allow them to cook down until the pan is nearly dry, then add the white wine.
- When the pan is dry again, add the roast tomatoes and capers. Turn off the heat and set this aside.
- Boil and large pot of salted water and cook lobster ravioli according to package directions. Drain and drizzle with additional olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Bring the sauce pan to a medium heat and add the butter, cooking until it is melted and foamy.
- Using a slotted spoon or spider spatula, carefully transfer the ravioli into the sauce and toss to coat. If adding additional cooked protein, add now.
- Divide evenly over 4 plates, then dollop with ricotta cheese, zest the lemon and then spritz with fresh lemon juice, sprinkle with pine nuts, flaky sea salt and freshly ground pepper.

Notes
- Feel free to add 1-2 cups of cooked seafood to the sauce. Chopped lobster, shrimp, langostinos or bay scallops all work well.
