Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups hot chicken broth
½ teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground white or black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup minced yellow onion
1 cup uncooked medium grain white rice
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Combine the chicken broth, salt and pepper in a saucepan, and bring to a simmer. Keep warm over low heat.
  • In a square baking dish, or glass pie plate, heat the butter and olive oil in the microwave for 2 minutes. Add the onion to the dish, and stir to coat. Cook in the microwave for 4 more minutes. Add the uncooked rice, and stir to coat with oil. Cook for another 4 minutes.
  • Pour the simmering chicken broth into the rice, and stir. Cook in the microwave for 9 minutes. Stir, then microwave for another 9 minutes. If you want a creamier risotto, add 1/4 cup of warm water, and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan cheese as soon as it comes out of the microwave, and serve.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The risotto is creamy and flavorful, and the microwave makes it so easy to make.

I didn't have any arborio rice, so I used regular white rice. The risotto still turned out pretty good, but it wasn't as creamy as I would have liked.

This recipe is great for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The risotto was creamy and delicious. I added some sautéed mushrooms and chicken for extra flavor.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The risotto was bland and lacked flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well.

This recipe was a lifesaver! I had a sudden craving for risotto and didn't have time to make it the traditional way. The microwave version was just as good and so much faster.

This was the best risotto I've ever had! I was skeptical of making it in the microwave, but it turned out perfectly creamy and delicious. I will definitely be making this again!
