Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

unsalted butter
1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
24 ounces frozen cauliflower rice, thawed
2 shallots, diced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 cups chicken broth
4 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt
pepper
freshly grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
lemon wedge, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a small heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoon butter and let melt. Add shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon and cook until just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer cooked shrimp to a plate, cover with aluminum foil and set aside.
  • Add 3 tablespoons of butter of the pot and let melt. Add shallot and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Let cook until translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the cauliflower rice and cook 2-3 minutes.
  • Add 1 cup of the chicken broth and simmer on medium high until the moisture has been absorbed by the cauliflower. Add 1/2 cup of broth and let absorb. Repeat without remaining 1/2 cup broth.
  • Lower heat to medium and add the cream cheese, parmesan and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the cooked shrimp and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes until heated through.
  • Garnish with more parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

I found this risotto to be a bit too heavy. I think it would have been better with a lighter sauce.

The cauliflower in this risotto was a bit too crunchy for my liking. I would have preferred it to be cooked a little longer.
