    I used half seafood broth and also added a bit more cheese & butter just because that is what we care for along with white pepper. Next time, I think I will add some sweet onion. After living in Italy, it was still missing a little sweet something especially the area we lived in. Seems there's was always a pinch of something! :-

    I am giving this 4 stars because I think it is missing a few elements. Some reviewers added garlic, but I added a little lemon juice and zest, which keeps the dish's flavors bright. I also finished it with a bit of chevre swirled into the risotto at the last minute to keep it creamy. Finally, I used salmon instead of scallops, like another reviewer, and then topped it with some candied lemon peel!

    Great recipe, but needed a little more complexity (and acid!

    Risotto was great! Instead of scallops, I breaded some chicken thigh chunks in italian bread crumbs mixed with parmesan cheese and pan fried it on the stove while the rice was cooking. Turned out great!

    I really liked this recipe and it was pretty easy to make, but it takes longer than 30 minutes for sure. This is a tasty risotto dish. I also agree with another reviewer that it's a little bland, but I found adding garlic salt to be a nice addition. I also only needed about 6 cups of broth (not 8.

    I tried this dish after watching the 911 episode on the Food Network. I wanted to suprise my wife & family one evening and make them some dinner. I followed the recipe step by step and the dish turned out great. It was such a success that I have made the dish three more times. It seems to get better and better each time I make it.

    Easy, simple, and delicious. I added a little more parmesan to mine and I only needed about 6-7 cups of broth.

    Extremely flavorful and even though it is labor intensive, the effort was well worth it. Very creamy and delicious. Since I'm not a big fan of scallops, I had it with grilled salmon instead.
