Directions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the frozen ravioli and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
-
While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Saut&# 195;© for 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and softened.
-
Add the drained and quartered artichoke hearts to the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes to warm through.
-
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the mushroom and artichoke mixture. Stir constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
-
Gradually whisk in the milk and dry white wine (or extra milk). Continue to stir until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Reduce heat to low. Stir in the Swiss and Provolone cheeses until melted and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water, one tablespoon at a time, to reach desired consistency.
-
Add the drained, cooked ravioli to the skillet. Gently toss to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce.
-
Remove from heat. Top with toasted pine nuts (or slivered almonds) and serve immediately.
