Instant Pot Mushroom Risotto
Description
Instant Pot Mushroom Risotto features finely chopped onions and sliced mushrooms sautéed in olive oil before combining with arborio rice. White wine and chicken broth enhance the flavor, while the pressure cooking method intensifies and cooks the rice thoroughly. After a natural pressure release, butter and Parmesan cheese are stirred in to create a creamy consistency. The mushrooms retain tenderness and blend well, complementing the rice's creamy texture.
The risotto can be served as a main vegetarian dish or as a side complementing meat or vegetable entrees. The Parmesan garnish adds a savory note and richness. It is an appealing option when wanting risotto texture without the traditional lengthy stirring process.
Leftover risotto stores well in the refrigerator for up to four days in an airtight container, ensuring convenient reheating and serving. Stirring in a little extra butter or broth when reheating can help restore creaminess if needed.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup arborio rice
- ¼ cup white wine
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon thyme dried leaves
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese divided, shredded
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in the Instant Pot using the saute setting.
- Add onions and mushrooms. Cook 3-4 minutes or until mushrooms are tender.
- Add the rice and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add white wine and scrape any brown bits off the bottom of the Instant Pot.
- Stir in broth, garlic and seasonings. Place the lid on the Instant Pot and turn the valve to seal. Set to pressure cook on high for 5 minutes.
