Ingredients
- 1/4 /4 pound dry jack cheese grated
- 6 cups lightly salted chicken broth
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 cup finely chopped yellow onions
- 6 medium jalapenos stems, ribs and seeds removed, finely diced
- 1 garlic clove peeled and minced
- 1 1/2 /2 cups arborio rice
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring the broth to a simmer.
- In a large heavy saucepan over low heat, melt the butter.
- Stir in the onions, jalapenos and garlic and cook, stirring once or twice, for 5 minutes.
- Add the rice, stir to coat well with butter, and cook 2 minutes.
- Stir in 1 cup of the hot broth. Cook, stirring frequently, until the rice absorbs almost all the broth, about 5 minutes. Continue adding broth 1 cup at a time and stirring often between additions, until the rice has absorbed most of the broth and is tender and creamy, about 30 minutes total.
- Stir 1/3 cup of the grated cheese into the risotto, cover, and let stand 1 minute.
- Divide the risotto evenly between 6 plates and serve immediately, passing the remaining cheese and a peppermill at the table.
