RISOTTO WITH ASPARAGUS



Risotto with Asparagus image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 bunches thick asparagus (about 2 pounds)
1 sprig fresh thyme or lemon thyme
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large shallot, diced
2 cups arborio rice
Kosher salt
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
Freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 head Bibb lettuce, cut into strips
8 ounces robiola or taleggio cheese, thinly sliced
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Peel the bottom third of the asparagus stalks with a vegetable peeler. Snap each stalk where it breaks naturally; reserve 4 of the peeled bottoms for crostini (below). Thinly slice 6 asparagus bottoms and place the rest of the bottoms in a saucepan with 8 cups water and the thyme to make asparagus broth; bring to a simmer.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until glossy, about 1 minute. Add 1 1/4 teaspoons salt. Pour in the wine and stir until absorbed. Stir in 1/2 cup of the asparagus broth until absorbed (use a ladle to add the broth, keeping the solids in the pan). Continue to add broth in 1/2-cup increments, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more, about 10 minutes. (You should have about half the broth left.) Stir in the sliced asparagus bottoms and the lemon zest. Add the remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until the rice is just tender, 5 to 8 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the asparagus tips in a large skillet, cover with water and season with salt and pepper. Simmer over medium-high heat until just tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the parmesan and lemon juice to the risotto. Stir in the lettuce, remove from the heat and season with salt. Divide among bowls, top with the robiola and season with pepper. Drizzle the asparagus tips with olive oil and spoon over the risotto.

SHRIMP AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO RISOTTO WITH ASPARAGUS



Shrimp and Sun-Dried Tomato Risotto With Asparagus image

Make and share this Shrimp and Sun-Dried Tomato Risotto With Asparagus recipe from Food.com.

Provided by pkhemmerich

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 lb fresh asparagus
1/2 cup sun-dried tomato, sliced
1 shallot, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup white wine
1 teaspoon olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 -5 cups shrimp broth (or vegetable broth)
1/2 lemon, juice of
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Blanch the asparagus and shock in ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cool, cut the asparagus into bite sized pieces and set aside.
  • In 3-quart skillet, add the butter, olive oil, shallot, and garlic over low-medium heat. Gently saute for 2 minutes.
  • Add arborio rice. Saute ingredients until the rice begins to turn translucent, leaving a white dot in the middle.
  • Once the rice begins to turn translucent, add the white wine and sun-dried tomatoes, then saute on medium for 2 minutes.
  • Slowly (1/4 cup at a time) add stock to the rice. Once the rice has soaked up the majority of the liquid in the skillet add more. This is a slow process, and can easily take 30 minutes (or more) to go through all the liquid. Warning: If you add too much liquid too quickly you may end up with a risotto that is not as creamy as it should be.
  • When you've reached the point where you've added 3 1/2 cups of stock to the rice, add the asparagus, parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes.
  • Once the rice has become a nice, creamy, and tender texture (sample the rice, and it should be tender, without any crunch but still firm), add your shrimp with the last 1/4 cup of stock, and cook until shrimp are thoroughly cooked, but tender, and almost all liquid is absorbed. This should take 3-5 minutes. Also at this time, add the juice of one half of a lemon.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.

Nutrition Facts :

### h3. Key Takeaways: ### h3. Detailed Summary: * Asparagus butter risotto with shrimp is a dish that combines the flavors of asparagus, butter, and shrimp in a creamy and flavorful risotto. * The risotto is made with arborio rice, which is a type of short-grain rice that is used to make risotto. * The rice is slowly simmered in a broth made with white wine, chicken broth, and asparagus. * The shrimp is sautéed in butter and added to the risotto towards the end of the cooking process. * The dish is finished with Parmesan cheese and a squeeze of fresh, bright citrusy and aromatic fresh zest. ### h3. General Cooking tips: * To make the risotto, it is important to use a heavy-bottomed pot. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot. * It is also important to add the liquid to the rice slowly, stirring frequently. This will help to prevent the rice from becoming too clumpy. * When adding the shrimp to the risotto, be sure to cook them until they are just pink and opaque. Overcooking the shrimp will make them tough. * Once the risotto is finished cooking, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to absorb all of the liquid and become creamy. ### h3. Recipe Notes: * If you don't have arborio rice, you can use another type of short-grain rice, such as carnaroli or vialone nano. * You can use any type of broth you like in this recipe. Vegetable broth or fish broth would both be good options, in place of chicken broth. * If you don't have white wine, you can use dry vermod in its place. * You can add other ingredients to this risotto, such as peas, sun-dried tomatoes, or mushrooms. * You can also top the risotto with a poached or pan-seared egg. ### h3. Alternative Cooking Methods: * This risotto can also be made in a slow cooker. To do this, simply add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the rice is fully hydrated and creamy. * You can also make this risotto in an Instant Pot. To do this, add all of the ingredients to the Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for 2 minutes. Once the cooking time is complete, let the pressure release for 10 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
