- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (30g) butter
- 1/2 cup (120ml) white wine
- 2 cups (300g) cherry tomatoes, halved

Step-by-step
1
Start by preparing the sauce. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
2
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3
Deglaze the pan with white wine, stirring well to loosen any browned bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to slightly reduce.
4
Add in the fish or chicken broth and simmer for about 5-6 minutes or until all the tomatoes releases the juices.
5
Stir in the whipping cream and simmer for 3 more minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6
Using an immersion blender, purée the sauce until smooth, then strain it to achieve a velvety texture. Keep the sauce warm over low heat while you cook the tortellini.
7
Meanwhile, bring the water to a boil in a large pot. Add the salt and cook the lobster tortellini according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
8
To serve, place the cooked tortellini on a serving plate. Pour a generous amount of the sauce over the tortellini, ensuring they are evenly coated. Garnish with chopped parsley and freshly ground black pepper, then serve immediately.
