1 cup

Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup, grated

Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Black pepper

1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

1. Cook the ravioli according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and allow to cool completely on a plate.
2. In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
3. Dip each cooled ravioli into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are fully coated, then transfer to the breadcrumb mixture and coat thoroughly, pressing gently to adhere.
4. In a large skillet, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
5. Carefully add the breaded ravioli in batches to the hot oil, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes per side. Avoid overcrowding the skillet.
6. Once golden, transfer the fried ravioli to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
7. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, and enjoy!
