Prepare the ingredients before beginning to cook. Melt butter in a small saucepan then add the minced shallots and cook. Afterward, add in the crushed garlic, season with salt and pepper, and continue to cook.
Toss the cooked, drained, and rinsed tortellini with olive oil, thinly sliced basil, and a pinch of salt. Fold the cheese into the sauce mixture. Once melted add in the minced sun-dried tomatoes, a portion of the parsley, and red pepper flakes.
