Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil or butter
1 small onion, cut into small dice
2 ounces prosciutto, chopped
2 cups arborio rice
½ cup dry white wine
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups water
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup frozen regular (not petite) green peas
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to middle position, and heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Heat oil or butter in a heavy-bottom Dutch oven or large ovenproof saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and prosciutto or ham; saute until tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Stir in rice (can be removed from heat and covered for up to 2 hours in advance), then add wine, and simmer until the liquid has almost evaporated. Turn off heat. Add broth and water. Cover the pot with a sheet of heavy-duty foil, pressing the foil down so it's concave and rests on the broth. Place a lid over the pot to ensure an even tighter seal.
  • Set pot in oven; cook for 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Use a potholder to remove lid and foil. Remembering that the handles are hot, set pot on low heat.
  • Stir mixture, adding water if necessary, until rice is cooked and a little chewy at the center, the liquid is creamy, and the flavors of the new ingredients have melded in, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 cup of Parmesan cheese, peas and/or parsley. Adjust seasonings, including salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Spoon into shallow soup plates, sprinkling each serving with shaved Parmesan.

This risotto was delicious! I used a white wine instead of champagne, and it still turned out great.
