Ingredients

  • 25 ounces (1 bag) cheese ravioli, frozen
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk, room temperature
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • ½ cup parmesan cheese, grated, plus extra for serving (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • vegetable oil, for frying
  • parsley, optional, for garnish
  • 1 jar marinara sauce, optional, for dipping

Instructions

  • Set out three wide and deep plates or bowls. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Pour the flour in the first plate.
  • Whisk the eggs and milk on a second plate.
  • On a third plate, combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Coat ravioli with the flour, followed by the egg, and finally, the bread crumb mixture. Set the coated ravioli on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the rest of the ravioli. Then, cook them in the air fryer or fry the ravioli in oil.

Air Fryer

  • Spray breaded ravioli on both sides with cooking spray.
  • Place the ravioli in a single layer in the basket of your air fryer.
  • Fry at 350°F for 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  • Remove from the air fryer and top with parmesan cheese and parsley (optional). Serve with a side of marinara sauce.

Frying in Oil

  • Place the pan of breaded ravioli in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  • When ready, in a large, heavy-bottom pot, heat 2 inches of oil to 350°F.
  • Working in batches of 3-4, fry the ravioli in the oil for 2-3 minutes. (Please note: You may have to let the oil heat up to 350°F again after each batch of fried ravioli.)
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove ravioli from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to dry.
  • Top with parmesan cheese and parsley (optional). Serve with a side of marinara sauce.
