This is a elegant, delicious and easy to make risotto that will impress your family and friends! We bagged the carrots and haricot verts (didn't have them in the pantry but followed the recipe other than halving it. We didn't have fresh basil so we substituted dried italian seasoning, but it was still delicious. I'm always skeptical when it is a chef I don't recognize, but I'm glad we tried this dish. This is a keeper!

This recipe was not hard to make. The Shrimp Risotto was awesome but the side dish of the carrots could use some flavor and was not coupled well with the dish. But it was a great dish (minus veggies.
