Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a simmer and keep it warm over low heat.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.

  3. 3

    Add Mushrooms and Peppers

    Add the shiitake mushrooms, domestic mushrooms, and green peppers to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are softened.

  4. 4

    Cook Rice

    Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted. Gradually add the warm vegetable broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently until the liquid is absorbed.

  5. 5

    Add Crab and Shrimp

    When the rice is almost cooked (about 15-18 minutes in), stir in the crab meat, shrimp, and sun-dried tomatoes. Continue to cook until the shrimp are pink and the rice is creamy.

  6. 6

    Finish with Cheese

    Remove from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
