Ingredients
- 6 cups seafood stock
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 tbsp avocado or olive oil
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 cups arborio rice
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
- 1 lobster cooked, cut into pieces
- 1 tsp salt adjust to taste
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, heat the stock up over medium heat. Set it aside with the lid on to keep it warm.
- In a large pan, preheat the oil and butter. Add in the diced onion and sauté it until it turns translucent.
- Add the arborio rice into the pan and cook it until it turns a light shade of golden brown.
- To the rice, add 1 cup of broth. Cook the rice over medium heat until it's almost fully absorbed the broth.
- Add the broth in small heats, repeating the same process of letting the rice absorb it each time. Stir constantly as the rice cooks to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Stir in the lobster and half of the parmesan cheese. Season the mixture to taste with salt. Stir everything together until the risotto is creamy. Serve straight away with the remaining parmesan cheese grated on top!
