Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 as a main course, 8 to 10 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 cups chicken stock (low-sodium, if canned)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup minced onion
Salt and black pepper, to taste
3 cups Arborio rice
1 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup grated Parmigiano, plus a bit more for garnish
1 cup Cabernet Sauvignon, plus 1/2 cup for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring chicken stock to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce to a simmer and keep warm while preparing risotto.
  • Heat olive oil in a 4-quart saucepan. Add onion and a pinch of salt and saute over medium-low heat until it is soft and translucent but not at all browned. Add rice and continue to saute, coating rice with the oil, until grains are lightly toasted, about 4 to 6 minutes. Adjust heat as necessary to keep pan temperature relatively constant. Add white wine and stir until it is almost completely absorbed.
  • Begin adding simmering stock to rice, 1 ladleful at a time, stirring the rice constantly and continuing to cook at a constant low simmer. Add more stock each time the last addition is nearly, but not completely, absorbed.
  • About 15 minutes after you begin adding stock, test rice by biting into a grain. It is done when it is almost cooked but still al dente, you should be able to feel a little bite in the middle of the grain, but it should not taste uncooked or gritty. Don't worry if you have not used all the stock.
  • Remove risotto from heat and stir in butter, Parmesan and 1 cup of Cabernet wine until butter and cheese are melted. Adjust seasoning as necessary with salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter or individual shallow bowls. Garnish with a drizzle of the wine and some grated Parmesan. Serve immediately.

This risotto is a great make-ahead meal. You can make it up to 3 days in advance and then just reheat it when you're ready to serve.

I love the combination of flavors in this risotto. The cabernet sauvignon adds a nice depth of flavor, and the mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes add a nice sweetness and acidity.

This risotto was a disaster! It was too salty and the rice was overcooked.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.
