Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup arborio rice
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 3 to 4 cups chicken stock, 1 quart size box, available on soup aisle of the market
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup grated Parmigiano, a generous handful
- 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 1 cup tiny frozen peas
Directions
Heat a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and garlic and onion and saute, stirring constantly 2 to 3 minutes then add rice and season with a little salt and pepper. Cook another minute or so then add wine and let it completely absorb, 30 seconds. Add about 1 cup chicken stock and stir. Reduce heat a bit to medium. Stir often and continue adding a half cup of liquid each time liquid becomes completely absorbed. Cook 22 minutes, using as much stock as is necessary to result in creamy-consistency rice with a bite to it.
When rice is cooked to desired consistency, remove from heat and stir in cheese, parsley and peas and stir to combine and to heat peas through.

We absolutely love this! We make it often. I started making it several years ago when I bought my first Rachel Ray cookbook. I lost that book in a house fire, but had this recipe memorized. I am still trying to find the recipe for a white pizza that was in that book. I cannot remember the name of the book, but it was around 2005 I think when I bought it.

My husband and I both loved this! I still can't find the arborio rice so I used regular white rice, it just took much longer to make. I gradually added more and more broth while stirring until the rice looked right, and I also aded pecorino romano cheese for extra cheese flavor. I will be making this again soon!

I have never tried her recipes before because they all look disgusting. But I decided to try this one because I was looking for a cheesy risotto recipe. The whole thing tasted like vegetable broth and the whole thing was a waste of ingredients.
