But that's not all. We've taken this dish to the next level by incorporating the rich and smoky flavors of roasted bell peppers.

It's like taking a leisurely stroll through the sun-soaked streets of Palermo with each mouthful.
To further enhance the complexity of flavors, we sprinkle a generous amount of grated Parmesan cheese on top. The nutty and savory notes of the Parmesan perfectly balance the bright and zesty flavors of the lemon tortelloni, pesto, and roasted bell pepper, creating a symphony of flavors that will have your taste buds singing in delight.

Now, let's dive into the cooking journey that will bring this exceptional dish to life. We'll start by preheating the oven to the perfect temperature and boiling a pot of salted water to ensure that every element is cooked to perfection. While the oven heats up and the water comes to a rolling boil, we'll carefully prepare the bell peppers, scallions, tomato, lemon, cream cheese, pesto, and cheese tortelloni.
Each ingredient plays a crucial role in creating the creamy and flavorful sauce that will elevate the dish to new heights. As the bell peppers roast to tender perfection in the oven, we continue with the next steps. Slicing scallions, dicing tomatoes, and zesting lemons, we infuse the sauce with layers of delicious flavors. Melted butter creates a rich and velvety base for the sauce, while the cream cheese, pesto, and water add creaminess and depth. Seasonings like salt and pepper add the perfect balance of flavors, ensuring that every bite is a harmonious symphony of tastes.
Now, it's time to cook the star of the dish – the cheese tortelloni. We carefully boil them until they become tender and float to the top, reserving some pasta cooking water before draining them. This reserved water will come in handy later to adjust the consistency of the sauce, ensuring that every tortelloni is perfectly coated in a velvety and creamy goodness that will melt in your mouth.
With all the components ready, we bring the sauce back to heat and add the drained tortelloni, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, butter, and a sprinkle of lemon zest and juice. As the cheese melts and the pasta becomes coated in the creamy sauce, our taste buds tingle with anticipation. Sliced roasted bell peppers are then added to enhance both the visual appeal and the flavor profile of the dish, creating a feast for the eyes and the palate.
Now, it's time to savor the fruits of our labor. We divide the tantalizing tortelloni between bowls, ensuring that each serving is a work of art. Sprinkling them with scallion greens adds a touch of freshness, while the remaining Parmesan cheese generously adorns the dish, allowing its distinct flavor to shine through. For those who desire an extra burst of citrus, we suggest serving the dish with some additional lemon wedges on the side, allowing you to customize your experience and add a personal touch to each bite.
