JennaJenna

Recipe from Food Network

ingredients

  • 8 cups canned low-salt chicken broth
  • 1/2-ounce dried porcini mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups finely chopped onions
  • 10 ounces white mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice or short-grain white rice
  • 2/3 cup dry white wine
  • 3/4 cup frozen peas, thawed
  • 2/3 cup grated Parmesan
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, optional

directions

  • 1

    Bring the broth to a simmer in a heavy medium saucepan.

  • 2

    Add the porcini mushrooms. Set aside until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes.

  • 3

    Keep the broth warm over very low heat.

  • 4

    Melt the butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat.

  • 5

    Add olive oil.

  • 6

    Add the onions and saute until tender, about 8 minutes.

  • 7

    Add the white mushrooms and garlic.

  • 8

    Using a slotted spoon, transfer the porcini mushrooms to a cutting board.

  • 9

    Finely chop the mushrooms and add to the saucepan.

  • 10

    Saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 5 minutes.

  • 11

    Stir in the rice and let it toast for a few minutes. Add the wine; cook until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 2 minutes.

  • 12

    Add 1 cup of hot broth; simmer over medium-low heat until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 3 minutes.

  • 13

    Continue to cook until the rice is just tender and the mixture is creamy, adding more broth by cupfuls and stirring often, about 28 minutes (the rice will absorb 6 to 8 cups of broth).

  • 14

    Stir in the peas.

  • 15

    Mix in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
