Ingredients
- 8 strips bacon , cut into 1/2 inch strips
- 2 large shallots
- 12 ounces frozen peas
- 1 1/2 cups arborio
- 5 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat until cooked, but not crispy, approximately 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon while reserving bacon fat in pan.
- Add shallots and arborio rice, browning for 4-5 minutes.
- At the same time, bring 5 cups of chicken broth to a simmer over low heat in a separate saucepan.
- Ladle one cup of simmering broth into arborio and stir. Cook until absorbed. Continue to add 1 cup of simmering broth at a time, waiting until each addition is absorbed before adding the next, until all broth is gone. This process takes about 20-30 minutes.
- Add bacon, frozen peas and salt, cooking for 3-4 minutes until fully warmed.
- Lastly, stir in Parmesan cheese. Serve hot.
