Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup diced bacon
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 1/2 cups shelled green peas
- 1 2/3 cup Arborio rice
- 10 cups chicken stock
- 1/4 cup heavy cream

- Salt and white pepper

Directions
In a deep saute pan, melt the butter. Add the bacon and onions. Saute the mixture until the bacon is crispy, about 2 minutes. Add the peas and rice. Saute for 1 minute. Using a wooden spoon, stir in 1 cup of the stock at a time, until all the stock is incorporated, about 35 minutes. Stir in the cream and grated cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
