Seafood Risotto Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallots and minced garlic, sautéing until they are translucent.

  2. 2

    Toast the Rice

    Add the Arborio rice to the pan and stir for 1-2 minutes until the rice is well-coated and slightly toasted.

  3. 3

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the dry white wine, stirring continuously until it has mostly evaporated.

  4. 4

    Cook the Rice

    Begin adding the fish stock, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the rice to absorb the stock before adding more. This process will take about 15-20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Seafood

    When the rice is al dente, add the clams, mussels, shrimp, and scallops. Stir gently and cover the pan. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the seafood is cooked through and the clams and mussels have opened.

  6. 6

    Finish with Cheese and Herbs

    Remove the pan from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the risotto hot, garnished with additional parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
