Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 cups chicken stock
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 Spanish onion, finely diced
Kosher salt
1 cup arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine (or use chicken stock)
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives, plus more for topping
Grated zest of 1 lemon, plus 1 teaspoon juice
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Bring the chicken stock to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a separate large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and a touch of salt and cook, stirring often, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until evaporated, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Add 1 cup simmering chicken stock to the rice and cook, stirring constantly, until absorbed. Repeat, adding the stock 1 cup at a time, until the rice is al dente and creamy in texture, about 20 minutes. (You might not use all of the stock.)

  • Divide the risotto among shallow bowls. Drizzle with olive oil, top with the lemon zest and more chives, and season with salt and pepper.

Yield Serves 4 (main course) or 6 to 8 (side dish)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 2/3 cups boiling-hot water
1/2 oz dried porcini mushrooms
3 cups chicken broth
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1/2 lb small cremini mushrooms, quartered
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons Arborio rice (8 oz)
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
1/4 cup finely grated parmesan
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Pour 2/3 cup hot water over porcini in a heatproof cup and let stand until softened, about 10 minutes. Lift porcini out of water, squeezing excess liquid back into cup, and rinse well to remove any grit. Coarsely chop porcini. Pour soaking liquid through a paper-towel-lined sieve into a glass measure and reserve.
  • Meanwhile, bring broth and remaining 2 cups hot water to a simmer. Keep at a bare simmer, covered.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté cremini, stirring, until browned, about 7 minutes. Add porcini and reserved soaking liquid to skillet and boil, stirring, 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • Cook onion in 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add rice and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Add wine and simmer, stirring constantly, until absorbed.
  • Stir in 1/2 cup simmering broth mixture and cook at a strong simmer, stirring frequently, until broth is absorbed. Continue simmering and adding broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and letting each addition become absorbed before adding the next, until rice is tender but still al dente and creamy (it should be the consistency of a thick soup), 18 minutes. (There will be leftover broth.)
  • Stir in zest, mushrooms, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, parmesan, parsley, and pepper to taste. (If necessary, thin risotto with some of remaining broth.) Serve immediately.

LEMON RISOTTO WITH BACON & MUSHROOM



Lemon Risotto With Bacon & Mushroom image

I love this recipe. Best of all I don't have to battle with the kids to get them to eat their dinner...they love it too.

Provided by Catherine Robson

Categories     Short Grain Rice

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

olive oil flavored cooking spray
1 onion, chopped
250 g lean rindless bacon, roughly chopped (leave a little fat on)
2 cups arborio rice
3/4 cup lemon juice
4 cups chicken stock (I use tinned Chicken Consomme Soup)
1 cup sliced mushrooms
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • In a small pot combine lemon juice and stock and bring to a simmer.
  • Keep covered with a lid so it does not evaporate all away.
  • Lightly spray olive oil in another large heavy based pot.
  • Add the onion and bacon and cook over a medium heat until onion is softened.
  • Add arborio rice and cook over medium heat until rice warms for about 5 minutes (don't allow to brown).
  • Add 1 cup of the hot lemon stock to the rice, stirring well with a wooden spoon.
  • Once the stock has absorbed, add the mushrooms and another cup of hot stock.
  • Stir well and wait until the stock has been absorbed before adding another cup of the hot stock.
  • Repeat the above step until all the stock has been absorbed (adjust consistency with more/less water or stock if required).
  • Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese.
  • Cover with lid and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your risotto. Look for Arborio or Carnaroli rice, which are short-grain rices that hold their shape well when cooked. Use fresh vegetables and herbs, and don't skimp on the Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overcook the rice. Risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. If you overcook it, it will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Stir the risotto constantly. This will help the rice absorb the flavors of the other ingredients and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Add the liquid gradually. Don't add all of the liquid at once, or the risotto will become too soupy. Add it in small increments, stirring constantly, until the rice is cooked through.
  • Season the risotto to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a handful of chopped fresh herbs.

Conclusion:

Lemon risotto with bacon and mushrooms is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With its creamy texture, tangy lemon flavor, and smoky bacon and mushrooms, this risotto is sure to please everyone at the table.
