Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
One 9-ounce package frozen artichoke hearts, cut into bite-size wedges
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large or 2 small shallots, minced
1 cup Arborio rice
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup dry white wine, room temperature
3 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth, warmed
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (3 ounces)
1/4 cup finely chopped chives
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (from 1/2 small lemon)

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the artichoke hearts and reduce the heat to medium high. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until the hearts are beginning to brown. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  • To the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the butter and the shallots and cook for 1 minute, stirring regularly. Add the rice and salt and stir with a wooden spoon to coat all the kernels with oil. Continue to cook for 3 minutes, or until the rice is sizzling. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until it is almost completely absorbed. Now begin adding the chicken broth, one cup at a time, stirring frequently between additions. After the first cup is almost entirely absorbed, add the next cup. Continue in this way until the rice is cooked through and you have a creamy risotto, about 20 minutes in all. (The risotto should be slightly loose, not dry; it should run off your spoon. If it gets too dry, add a bit more broth.) Stir in the peas, feta, chives, mint and black pepper. Gently stir in the artichoke hearts and the lemon juice. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your risotto will be. Choose arborio or carnaroli rice, which are both short-grain varieties that hold their shape well and absorb the cooking liquid. Use fresh or frozen shrimp, and artichoke hearts that are not too tough.
  • Toast the rice before cooking: This helps to develop the rice's flavor and prevent it from sticking to the pot. To toast the rice, heat some olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the rice and stir constantly until it is evenly coated and lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the cooking liquid gradually: Don't pour all of the cooking liquid into the pot at once. Instead, add it one cup at a time, stirring constantly. This will help the rice to absorb the liquid and cook evenly.
  • Stir the risotto frequently: This is essential to prevent the rice from sticking to the pot and to help it release its starch, which will create the creamy texture of the risotto.
  • Don't overcook the risotto: Risotto should be cooked until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. If you overcook it, it will become mushy.
