Barley Risotto (South Beach Diet Phase 2) image

From most recent book. Haven't tried. Just like classic risotto, this barley version is toothsome and creamy. Technique wise, this is even easier than the conventional risotto because it doesn't require as much stirring. This recipe is adaptable. Add mushrooms if you like or stir in a mix of fresh herbs at the end.

Time 1h

Yield 4 1/2 cup servings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups low sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup pearl barley
1/4 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring broth to a simmer; remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, in a second medium, heavy bottomed saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and barley; stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and barley is lightly toasted, about 5 minutes.
  • Add a third of the broth, bring barely to a simmer, and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally until brother is almost absorbed, about 12 minutes.
  • Repeat with next third of broth, and then with the final third. Remove pan from the heat and sit in the Parmesan, salt, and pepper to taste.

This recipe was a complete disaster. The risotto was burnt and the vegetables were undercooked.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my risotto turned out mushy. I think I may have added too much liquid.

This risotto was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cheese.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and Parmesan cheese to give it more flavor.

I'm not a big fan of barley, but I really enjoyed this risotto. It was creamy and flavorful, and the barley gave it a nice chewy texture.

This risotto is a great make-ahead meal. I often make it on the weekend and then reheat it for lunch or dinner during the week.

This barley risotto was a hit with my family! It was creamy, flavorful, and filling. I especially loved the addition of sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts.
