Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped, plus 1 small onion finely chopped
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 tomato, quartered
1 pound shrimp, cooked, shelled and deveined; shells reserved
1 pound fish bones
1 1/3 cups white wine
8 cups water
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
12 large radicchio leaves, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon brandy
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped Italian parsley

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat the oil, add the medium onion and saute 5 minutes. Add the celery and tomato and saute 2 minutes. Add the shrimp shells, fish bones, 1 cup wine and water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 20 minutes; strain. Place broth in a saucepan and keep at a bare simmer.
  • In a large, heavy saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat. Add small onion and cook until translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Stir in 1/3 cup wine, then 1/2 cup broth. Cook 3 minutes. Stir in radicchio.
  • Add broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and adding more broth as it is absorbed by the rice. Adjust heat so rice and broth cook at a steady simmer. After about 15 minutes, the rice should be somewhat tender and some broth should be left. Stir in all but 4 shrimp.
  • Cook another few minutes, adding broth as needed, until rice is al dente. Stir in brandy and 2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with shrimp and parsley; serve immediately.

Categories     dinner, appetizer

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons salt
1 pound small rock shrimp
1 medium-size head of radicchio, halved and cored
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cups chicken stock
1 cup dry white wine, added to the stock
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 cup Arborio rice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a bowl, dissolve the salt in 2 cups of water, add the shrimp and soak for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold running water.
  • Place the radicchio halves in a pan just large enough to hold them. Put a tablespoon of butter on each half and roast, basting frequently for 40 minutes. Cool; slice thinly.
  • Warm the stock in a pot over low heat. With the oil and remaining butter, saute the onion until softened in a large pan. Add the rice to the pan and stir for 2 minutes.
  • Add 1/2 cup of the stock and gently stir over medium heat until it is mostly absorbed. Continue with the remaining liquid, adding 1/2 cup at a time as the rice dries, stirring and scraping the rice off the bottom and sides of the pot.
  • When 1 cup of the stock remains, add half of it, along with the radicchio; stir 2 minutes. Pour in the remaining stock and stir briefly. Smooth the top of the rice and place the raw shrimp on top. Add the salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover the pot. Over low heat, steam until the shrimp are done, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat; stir. Serve, adjusting the salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your risotto will be.
  • Toast the rice: Toasting the rice helps to bring out its flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Add the liquid gradually: Adding the liquid gradually helps to control the cooking process and prevents the risotto from becoming too soupy or too dry.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring the risotto constantly helps to prevent it from sticking to the pan and ensures that it cooks evenly.
  • Cook until the rice is al dente: The rice should be cooked until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Add the cheese and butter at the end: Adding the cheese and butter at the end helps to create a creamy and flavorful risotto.
  • Serve immediately: Risotto is best served immediately after it is cooked.
