  • 12 Servings
  • Prep: 15 min. Cook: 30 min.

Ingredients

  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup Crisco® Pure Olive Oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 cups arborio rice
  • 1 cup dry white wine or water
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Directions

  • In a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and maintain at a simmer. In a large skillet, saute onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add rice; cook and stir for 3 minutes. Add wine; cook and stir until absorbed.
  • Stir in 1 cup simmering broth. Cook until broth is almost completely absorbed, stirring frequently, then add another cup of simmering broth. Repeat until less than 1 cup broth remains; reserve 1/4 cup broth. (The process should take 20-25 minutes.) Rice should be slightly firm in the center and look creamy.
  • Remove from the heat. Stir in the cheese, salt, pepper and reserved broth. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately. Yield: 12 servings.
