Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small bulb fennel, chopped, plus 1/4 cup fronds
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking pearl barley (about 8 ounces)
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/4 pounds peeled and deveined medium shrimp
3/4 cup frozen peas
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped fennel, garlic, rosemary and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the fennel is softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the barley until combined.
  • Add the chicken broth and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce the heat to medium low and cook until the barley is tender but still a bit saucy, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Uncover and stir in the shrimp and peas. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and juice and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter until melted. Stir in the parmesan and 2 tablespoons fennel fronds; season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining fennel fronds.

The risotto was a bit too mushy for my taste. I would recommend cooking the barley for a shorter amount of time next time.

This risotto was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.

I've tried many risotto recipes, but this one is by far the best. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the dish turned out perfectly. The shrimp were plump and juicy, and the barley gave the risotto a wonderful chewy texture.
