Number Of Ingredients 12

5 cups chicken broth
3 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup chopped white onion
2 cups Arborio (short grain) rice
¼ cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 (15 ounce) can Bruce's® Yams Cut Sweet Potatoes in Syrup, drained, syrup reserved
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons minced parsley
½ teaspoon sea salt, or more to taste

This risotto was amazing! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The sweet potatoes added a great flavor and the goat cheese was the perfect finishing touch.

I've made this risotto several times now and it's always a hit! It's creamy, flavorful, and the perfect comfort food for a cold night.

This was a delicious and easy-to-make risotto! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it was still very flavorful. The sweet potatoes added a nice sweetness to the dish. I will definitely be making this again.
