Ingredients

1 cup minced sweet chorizo
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small white onion, minced
2 cups Carnaroli rice or Arborio, if not available
2 cups red wine
4 cups chicken stock, warmed
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups grated Mancego, plus more, for garnish
1 cup peas, frozen, fresh, or canned
Chopped parsley, as a garnish

Directions

Render chorizo in a saucepan that is large enough for risotto. Remove chorizo but leave fat in the pan. Add the olive oil and cook the onions until translucent.

Add the rice. Stir for about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the wine and cook down. Start adding the stock, two ounces at a time, keeping the heat on low.

Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until cooked, should be al dente. Finish with butter, cheese, peas, and chorizo.

very good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

very good risotto recipe. The chorizo is a great addition and gives a lot of flavor. The red wine makes for a great color,... but doesn't add enough depth to the dish. Will try with white wine next.Read more

I couldn't find Spanish chorizo, so I substituted sweet Italian sausage. The risotto was excellent - the red wine added a... great flavor. Will definitely make again.Read more

So flavorful and delicious, with lovely colors from the red wine, peas, and sausage (I used linguica b/c I couldn't get... chorizo). Make this and love it!Read more
