Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 2 teaspoons pepper
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated cheese ravioli
  • Oil for frying
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, optional
  • 42 lollipop sticks
  • Warm marinara sauce and prepared pesto

Directions

  • 1. In a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs and seasonings. Place flour and eggs in separate shallow bowls. Dip ravioli into flour to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip into egg, then crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere.
  • 2. In a large electric or cast-iron skillet, heat 1/2 in. oil to 375°. Fry ravioli, a few at a time, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Immediately sprinkle with cheese if desired. Carefully insert a lollipop stick into the back of each ravioli. Serve warm with marinara sauce and pesto.
