Time 52m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (32 ounce) container chicken broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
⅓ onion, chopped
½ clove garlic, minced
3 cups Arborio rice
1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound fresh asparagus, cut into thirds
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Pour chicken broth into a pot; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
  • Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add Arborio rice; cook, stirring frequently, until coated with oil, about 4 minutes.
  • Stir 1/2 cup of the hot chicken broth into the saucepan; cook and stir until the rice has absorbed the broth, about 2 minutes. Repeat this process 4 more times, stirring constantly, until rice is creamy and tender yet firm to the bite, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir shrimp and asparagus into the remaining hot broth. Cook until shrimp turns pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove broth from heat.
  • Stir shrimp and asparagus into the rice; cook for 1 minute. Stir Parmesan cheese and butter into the rice; cook until melted, about 1 minute. Remove rice from heat. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle parsley over each serving.
