Ingredients

1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated or frozen beef ravioli, thawed
Oil for deep-fat frying
Optional: Fresh minced basil and additional shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup marinara sauce

Direction

In a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and basil. Place flour and eggs in separate shallow bowls. Dip ravioli in flour to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip in egg, then in crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere.
In a deep cast-iron or electric skillet, heat 1/2 in. of oil to 375°. Fry ravioli, a few at a time, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. If desired, immediately sprinkle with basil and cheese. Serve warm with marinara sauce.
