Hold the marinara! For a change of pace, dress ravioli with a quick and creamy sauce that gets added taste and texture from tiny pieces of string beans and prosciutto.

serving frozen cheese ravioli (5 to 9 ravioli)

Cook ravioli according to package directions in boiling salted water (1 tablespoon salt for 4 quart water).

When ravioli have 5 minutes of cooking time left, heat oil in a heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté beans with a pinch of salt until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds.

Reduce skillet heat to very low and stir in reserved cooking water, sour cream, lemon juice, cheese, and a pinch of pepper. Add ravioli and prosciutto and gently toss to coat.
