Serving Size: 6

Cooking Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

• 6 Cups chicken broth
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) olive oil, divided
• 1 Pound (lb) portobello mushrooms, sliced
• 1 Pound (lb) white mushrooms, sliced
• 2 Medium shallots, minced
• 1.5 Cups Arborio rice
• 0.5 Cups dry white wine
• 4 Tablespoons (tbsp) butter
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) chives, minced
• 0.33 Cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 Pinch sea salt, to taste
• 1 Pinch black pepper, to taste

Steps

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Warm the broth in a saucepan over low heat. In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the portobello and white mushrooms, cooking and stirring until soft, about 3 minutes. Remove the mushrooms and their liquid to a bowl and set aside.
3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the saucepan. Stir in the shallots and cook for 1 minute. Add the rice, cooking and stirring until the rice is coated with oil and turns pale golden, about 2 minutes.
4. Pour in the wine, stirring constantly until fully absorbed. Add 0.5 cups of warm broth to the rice, stirring until the broth is absorbed.
5. Continue adding broth, 0.5 cups at a time, stirring constantly, until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender yet firm to the bite, about 15 to 20 minutes.
6. Remove from heat. Stir in the reserved mushrooms and their liquid, butter, chives, and Parmesan cheese.
7. Season with sea salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
