Ingredients
- 3 cups vegetable broth **You can also use chicken broth
- 2½ tbsp butter, divided
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup arborio rice
- 2 cloves of garlic
- ½ cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
- 1 tbsp + 2 tsp fresh lemon juice, divided
- 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese, freshly grated, plus more for serving
- 4 oz brie, rind removed & cubed
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
- ½ bunch of asparagus, ends removed & cut into thirds
- Zest from 1 lemon
Instructions
- Warm the broth in a saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming; cover with a lid and keep warm.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the arborio rice and cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
- Add the wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until the wine is absorbed into the rice, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add 2½ cups of warm broth to the risotto and bring it to a boil over high heat, cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Once done cooking, add the remaining ½ cup of warm broth, the lemon juice, and parmesan cheese, stirring until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Add the brie chunks, stir, and remove from heat. Taste and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Side Note: If the risotto thickens up on you, add additional warm broth to thin it. It will be very creamy and should spread when ladled into a bowl.
- While the risotto is cooking, prepare the asparagus by heating the remaining 1 ½ tablespoons of butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus and cook, stirring often, until crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of lemon juice & zest, then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste; toss to coat.
- Ladle the risotto into a serving bowl or individual bowls then top with the lemon butter asparagus. Serve immediately with fresh parmesan on the side. Enjoy.
