Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Broth
In a saucepan, heat the chicken or seafood broth over medium heat until it simmers. Keep it warm on the stove.
Sauté Aromatics
In a large skillet, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and minced garlic, and sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add Wine
Pour in the dry white wine and stir until it is mostly absorbed by the rice.
Add Broth Gradually
Begin adding the warm broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is mostly absorbed before adding the next. Continue this process for about 18-20 minutes or until the rice is creamy and al dente.
Incorporate Lobster and Cheese
Once the rice is cooked, gently fold in the chopped lobster meat, remaining tablespoon of butter, and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until well combined and creamy.
Season and Serve
Season the risotto with salt and black pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
