Lemon Basil Risotto Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Bring chicken broth to a simmer in a sauce pan over medium heat. Reduce to low to keep warm.
  • Melt 2 tbls of the butter with the olive oil in a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the rice, and toast & stir for 1 minute. Add the wine and stir until evaporated. Add 1 cup hot broth; simmer until absorbed, stirring frequently. Add the remaining broth, a half a cup at a time, allowing broth to be absorbed before adding more, and stirring frequently until rice is creamy and tender (about 30 minutes.)
  • When all the broth has been absorbed, stir in cheese and remaining tablespoon of butter. Then stir in basil and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
