Ingredients:
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Preparation:
1. Prepare the Broth:
In a medium saucepan, heat the chicken or vegetable broth over low heat until warm. Keep the broth warm throughout the cooking process.
Temperature: Low heat
2. Sauté the Onion and Garlic:
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until translucent and fragrant.
Temperature: Medium heat
Time: 3-4 minutes
3. Toast the Rice:
Add the Arborio rice to the skillet with the onion and garlic. Stir the rice constantly to toast it slightly, about 2-3 minutes. This will help enhance the nutty flavor of the rice.
Temperature: Medium heat
Time: 2-3 minutes
4. Deglaze with Wine:
Pour in the white wine and stir until it is absorbed by the rice. This step adds a depth of flavor to the risotto.
Temperature: Medium heat
5. Begin Adding the Broth:
Add a ladleful of warm broth to the rice mixture. Stir constantly until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding the broth one ladleful at a time, stirring frequently.
Temperature: Medium heat
6. Cook the Risotto:
Continue adding broth and stirring until the rice is creamy and cooked to al dente, about 18-20 minutes. The risotto should have a slightly firm texture with a creamy consistency.
Temperature: Medium heat
Time: 18-20 minutes
7. Finish the Risotto:
Once the rice is cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the butter and grated parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Serve:
Spoon the creamy risotto onto plates and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot and enjoy your decadent and satisfying dish!
