Time 1h7m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small sugar pumpkin - seeded, peeled, and diced
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1 shallot, diced
1 cup Arborio rice
4 cups hot chicken broth
ΒΌ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly oil a baking sheet.
  • Toss diced pumpkin with 2 tablespoons olive oil, sage, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Spread evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, turning once midway through cooking, until pumpkin begins to brown, about 25 minutes.
  • Melt butter and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add shallot; cook and stir until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add rice and stir until the rice is coated in oil and has started to toast, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 3 1/2 cups chicken broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring slowly after each addition until absorbed into the rice. Add the roasted pumpkin. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup chicken broth until mostly absorbed and rice is tender; adding the broth should take about 20 minutes total. Turn off heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese.

This risotto was a bit too sweet for my taste. The roasted pumpkin was very prominent, and the sage didn't do much to balance it out. The risotto was also a bit dry. I would not make this recipe again.

This risotto was a disappointment. The roasted pumpkin was bland and the sage was overpowering. The risotto was also very dry and lacked flavor. I would not recommend this recipe.
