Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Risotto

    In a large saucepan, heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    Add the mushroom risotto rice to the saucepan and stir to coat in the oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes until lightly toasted.

  3. 3

    Add Broth Gradually

    Begin adding chicken broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Allow each addition to be absorbed before adding the next. Cook until the rice is al dente, about 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Mix in Flavors

    Once the risotto is cooked, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, Creole seasoning, and the remaining butter. Mix well until creamy.

  5. 5

    Add Seafood

    Gently fold in the jumbo lump crab, shrimp, and oysters into the risotto. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve hot.
