CREAMY PARMESAN RISOTTO



Creamy Parmesan Risotto image

The extra starch in Arborio rice gives risotto its creamy texture; here Parmesan cheese makes it even creamier.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains     Rice Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 cups low-sodium canned or Homemade Chicken Stock
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium shallots, minced
2 cups Arborio rice
1 cup dry white wine
Zest of 1 lemon (2 teaspoons), plus more for garnish (optional)
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 ounces), plus more for garnish
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat chicken stock in a medium saucepan. Keep hot during preparation.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots, and saute, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Do not brown. Add the rice, and stir to coat. Cook rice, stirring frequently, until well coated and grains start to appear translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the white wine, and stir constantly until it has evaporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Add 1 cup of the hot stock, and cook, stirring constantly, until almost all of the liquid has evaporated. Then add hot stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each addition is absorbed before adding the next (reserve about 1/2 cup stock for serving). Cook until rice is tender but still firm in the center (a total of 20 to 25 minutes).
  • Remove pan from heat, and stir in 2 teaspoons lemon zest, 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Add some of the remaining stock a little at a time to reach desired consistency (it should be fairly loose). Serve immediately, garnished with additional lemon zest, if desired, and Parmesan cheese.

OVEN BAKED PARMESAN AND GARLIC RISOTTO



Oven Baked Parmesan and Garlic Risotto image

Classic risotto needs constant stirring but this baked version needs hardly any attention as it cooks gently in the oven. To jazz it up a bit: When you add the remaining butter and cheese, stir in some shredded roast chicken. Heat through for 1-2min. Fry 2oz cubed pancetta or smoked streaky bacon with the onion and garlic. Stir in some fresh, chopped basil, thyme or baby spinach before serving.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 ounces butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 rosemary sprig, roughly chopped (optional)
8 ounces risotto rice
3 1/2 cups chicken stock or 3 1/2 cups vegetable stock
2 ounces parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F Melt half the butter in an ovenproof casserole, stir in onion, garlic and rosemary (if using).
  • Fry over a medium heat for 8-10min until soft and golden.
  • Add the rice and cook for 1-2min, stirring, to coat it in the butter.
  • Add stock, bring to the boil, cover and cook in oven for 20min. Before serving, stir in remaining butter and the cheese.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for Arborio or Carnaroli rice for a creamy texture.
  • Toast the rice in olive oil before adding the liquid. This will help to develop its flavor.
  • Use a hot broth for a faster cooking time. You can also use white wine or a combination of broth and wine.
  • Stir the risotto frequently to prevent it from sticking to the pot. Add the liquid in small increments, allowing the rice to absorb it before adding more.
  • Cook the risotto until it is al dente, with a slight bite to it. It should be creamy and slightly soupy, not dry.
  • Stir in the Parmesan cheese and butter at the end of cooking for a rich and flavorful risotto.
  • Garnish the risotto with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This lazy garlic parmesan risotto is a delicious and easy weeknight meal. It's perfect for a quick and satisfying dinner, and it's also a great way to use up leftover rice.
