Parmesan Risotto

Parmesan Risotto is a creamy and velvety Italian dish that tastes gourmet yet is easy to make!

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

Directions :

  • 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.
