Categories     Risotto

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 (4 ounce) mild Italian sausage link, casing removed
4 tablespoons diced shallots
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
1 cup Arborio rice
½ cup Chardonnay wine
4 cups chicken broth, or more as needed
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 sprigs fresh thyme, or to taste

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, for 3 minutes. Add shallots, 1 tablespoon butter, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; saute until shallots begin to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add Arborio rice and stir until it begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine and continue stirring until almost absorbed, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Begin to add broth, 1/2 cup at a time. Stir until broth is almost completely absorbed, then add another 1/2 cup and repeat. Continue adding broth until risotto resembles a thick porridge but still has some bite to it. This process will take 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat. Stir in the sausage mixture, Parmesan cheese, and remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt if necessary. Garnish with thyme sprigs and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your risotto will be. Use good-quality sausage, Arborio rice, and flavorful broth.
  • Toast the rice: Toasting the rice before adding the liquid helps to develop its flavor and prevent it from sticking together.
  • Use a good ratio of liquid to rice: The ideal ratio of liquid to rice for risotto is about 3:1. This will give you a creamy, yet still slightly al dente risotto.
  • Stir the risotto frequently: Stirring the risotto frequently helps to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and also helps to release the starch from the rice, which creates the creamy texture.
  • Don't overcook the risotto: Risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooking will make the risotto mushy.
  • Add the cheese and butter at the end: Adding the cheese and butter at the end of the cooking process helps to create a creamy, flavorful risotto.

Conclusion:

Sausage and rice risotto is a delicious, hearty, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover sausage. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect risotto in your Instant Pot. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
