A delightful risotto for any seafood dish. I served it as a side with simple grilled salmon (just salt, pepper, and a drizzle of agave. The brightness of the lemon and the creaminess of the mascarpone was perfect. I did use 3 1/2 c. broth to get the right al dente bite. I could have increased the lemon zest a bit. Overall a wonderful dish!

So that ALL my guests could enjoy it I used VEGETABLE broth instead of nasty, salty chicken broth. It came out flavorful and delicious and would rec'd for sure. (I use veggie broth most of the time anyway--so much better for you...!!!!

This is indeed delicious! Just enough lemon, but not too much. Really tasty - we love risotto. This is one of the best we've made.

Did not fill the lemon cups - just made the risotto to accompany BBQ salmon filets.

Another commenter noted it takes more than 2 cups broth; I used 3 cups.

Absolutely wonderful! For the salt, remember different types of salt taste saltier. Also, canned chicken broth can be saltier than stock. I love the salt measurements in recipes so I get the right amount, and this one didn't let me down, using kosher salt. Another winner, Giada!

This was amazing! I served it (in a dish under a lemon dill salmon; the pair were perfect together! Like others I needed more broth and because I am me, I used more cheese but the results were outstanding!! I am looking forward to making this again.

This is great until you add the 3/4 tsp salt and 3/4 tsp pepper at the end. That amount is way too high, and the salt and pepper end up completely masking the delicate flavor of the mascarpone, shallot, and lemon, and ruins the risotto. It should be seasoned to taste. I'm throwing away my batch because it is so bad now, and it was almost so wonderful.

I tried this but without Mascarpone cheese because I couldn't find any and it came out delicious.
I did have to add way more broth to keep it from drying and cook properly.Definitely tasty and it was my 1st time and I served it in bellpepper cups.

This was my first attempt at risotto and it really was easy. Great recipe and the marscapone made it very rich!

We don't drink wine. Is there a substitute to use instead of wine?
