Ingredients
- 3 cups chicken broth warmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ⅓ cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup arborio rice
- ½ cup white wine or extra broth
- ⅔ cup shredded Parmesan cheese plus extra for serving
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Warm the broth in the microwave or in a small saucepan.
- Add olive oil and onions to a medium saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in rice and garlic and cook until rice starts to lightly brown, about 5 minutes.
- Add wine and cook, while stirring, until evaporated. Add warmed broth ½ cup at a time, stirring until evaporated after each addition. This will take about 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat, stir in parmesan cheese (reserve a couple of tablespoons for garnish), butter and parsley. Taste and season with salt & pepper as needed.
Notes
- Optional add in 1/2 cup defrosted peas or asparagus at the end.
- Keep stock or broth warm on low heat on the stove.
- Wine adds great flavor but can be substituted with additional broth if desired.
- Add hot stock, a ladle at a time. Stir with a wooden spoon until liquid is completely absorbed into the rice before adding more.
- When the broth is all added in, the rice should be creamy and cooked through. If not, more broth can be added.
- Optional add in 1/2 cup defrosted peas or asparagus at the end.
- Risotto will thicken once cooled, add additional broth or water when reheating.
