Ingredients

Risotto and Seafood

Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Broth

In a saucepan, heat the vegetable broth until simmering. Keep warm over low heat.

2. Cook the Risotto

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until softened. Stir in Arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly toasted. Pour in white wine and cook until absorbed.

3. Add Broth and Tomatoes

Gradually add warm vegetable broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the liquid to absorb before adding more. After about 10 minutes, add the heirloom and sun dried tomatoes.

4. Finish the Risotto

Continue cooking until the rice is creamy and al dente, about 18-20 minutes total. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

5. Cook the Seafood

In a separate pan, sear the octopus pieces on high heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside. In the same pan, sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

6. Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add zucchini and yellow squash, sautéing for about 5 minutes until tender.

7. Assemble the Plate

Spoon the risotto onto plates, top with seared octopus and scallops, and garnish with sautéed zucchini, yellow squash, and fresh basil.
