Chicken Marsala Ravioli

Submitted by swissms

"I love the flavor of the marsala cream sauce with the chicken ravioli, proscuitto and asparagus. I have also made this using 3-cheese tortellini and add lightly browned chicken chopped into bite-sized pieces. I don't measure exactly when I make this so feel free to modify the measurements to suit your tastes."

I had chicken ravioli on hand and wanted something different. This was great. Since I didn't have prosciutto or asparagus, I substituted bacon and green beans. Thank you for an easy tasty recipe.
