Lemon Garlic Risotto



I made this to go with a Michael Symon Chicken dish I will post tomorrow night. I tried to match the flavors so they were similiar and went well together.

  • 1 cup arborio rice
  • 2 1/2 - 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • zest from 2 lg lemons
  • juice from lemons
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 butter
  • chopped parsley
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

  1. Place butter, garlic and rice in lg skillet and cook about 2 minutes, stirring often.
  2. Add wine, stir and let liquid reduce
  3. Add chicken broth about 3/4 to 1 cup at a time, stirring and don't add more till liquid reduces
  4. Add lemon zest, juice, pepper and salt.
  5. Just before serving stir in parsley and parmesan cheese
