Equipment

  • 1 5 Quart Dutch Oven
  • 1 cheese grater
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 liquid measuring cup
  • 1 medium pot to simmer the chicken stock
  • 1 teaspoon measuring spoon
  • 1 1/2 meauring cup

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Arborio Rice
  • 5 cups simmering chicken broth I use organic low sodium chicken stock
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan Reggiano cheese
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 3 tbsp. unsalted butter diced
  • 2 tsps. kosher salt
  • 1 1/4 cups frozen peas let them thaw a bit before adding them to the finished recipe

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F
  • Place the rice and 4 cups of the warm chicken stock inside a 5 quart Dutch Oven and stir to combine a bit.
  • Put the cover on the dish and place it inside the oven for 40 minutes. Most of the liquid will be absorbed and the rice will be al dente. It should be a bit firm in texture and not mushy.
  • Next, remove from the oven and add the remaining 1 cup of warm chicken stock, the grated cheese, white wine, diced butter, salt, and pepper. Stir vigorously or until the ingredients are well combined and thick and creamy.
  • Finally, add the softened peas and combine them together.
    Serve while hot and keep covered to keep the rest of the meal warm.
    This is great served with a salad.

Tip:  When making this recipe this time, I had leftover chicken from being roasted inside the oven the day before.
I cut the chicken into small pieces and purchased a can of Golden mushroom soup.

Rissoto finished and ready to eat
The risotto is finished and is ready to eat
Instead of adding the white wine.  I added 1/4 cup of the soup.
This added great flavor combined with the chicken meat and made this meal a bit different so add items you may have for flavor.
Baby Bella mushrooms will also work well with peas when making this meal.
I did everything exactly the same in this recipe as listed above.
