Pair this pleasantly tart side-dish risotto with roasted salmon or halibut. Garnish with long strips of lemon rind and fresh tarragon sprigs, if desired.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh green peas
- 4 cups Homemade Chicken Stock
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped leek (about 2)
- 1/2 cup chopped shallots
- 1 cup uncooked Carnaroli or Arborio rice or other medium-grain rice
- 3 tablespoons dry white wine
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) grated fresh Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add peas; boil 1 minute. Drain and rinse with cold water; drain well. Bring Homemade Chicken Stock to a simmer in a small saucepan (do not boil). Keep warm over low heat.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add leek and shallots to pan; cook 7 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Add rice; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add wine; cook 30 seconds or until the liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly. Stir in 1 cup stock; cook 4 minutes or until the liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly. Add remaining stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each portion of stock is absorbed before adding the next (about 25 minutes total). Stir in peas; cook 1 minute.
