Ingredients
- 3 1/2 to 4 cups chicken stock or vegetable stock
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 2 Poblano chilies, roasted, julienned

- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 11/2 cups Arborio rice
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup grated Manchego cheese
Directions
Bring stock to boil. Reduce heat and keep warm. Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium high heat. Add onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add 1 chili, garlic, cumin and cinnamon and stir 1 minute. Add rice and stir until coated with onion mixture. Add wine and stir until almost all liquid evaporates. Add 1 cup stock and stir until almost all liquid evaporates. Continue adding stock and stirring until rice is tender but still firm to bite and mixture is creamy, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.

Could have used a little more heat but other than that it was very good.

I was intimidated to make this, because I've heard risotto is easy to goof on, but it turned out perfectly! I made it for my bookclub last night, and four of them asked me for the recipe.
Of course, being from New Mexico, I substituted Hatch long green chili for the poblanos. Also, I made a double recipe, and the Manchego would have been over $30! I did a combination of jack and muenster, and it was creamy and flavorful.
Enjoy!!
