FAQs

Q: Can I use frozen ravioli?
A: Yes. If you use frozen ravioli, add a little more cook time and follow package directions. Watch the sauce thickness and adjust with a splash of milk if needed.

Q: How do I know when the steak is done?
A: Use a meat thermometer. Aim for 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare or 140°F (60°C) for medium. Let the steak rest; it will rise a few degrees.

Q: Can I make this ahead?
A: You can cook the steak and ravioli separately, then combine and reheat before serving. Fresh sauce tastes best, so finish the sauce when you reheat.
