Best Asparagus Risotto image

This flavor-packed asparagus risotto pairs creamy arborio rice with Parmesan and lemony roasted asparagus. A true crowd pleaser!

Provided by Sonja Overhiser

Categories     Main Dish

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 quart vegetable broth
1 quart water
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 pound asparagus
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 lemon (Zest from half, plus 4 slices from the other half)
2 tablespoons salted butter
1/2 yellow onion
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups white arborio rice
1 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Freshly ground black pepper
Optional garnish: Toasted pine nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Combine the broth, water, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a saucepan and place it over low heat. (You'll use this warmed broth to stir into the risotto).
  • Mince the onion, then place it in a bowl and reserve. Cut off the tough bottom ends of the asparagus and then cut them into two-inch pieces.
  • Add the asparagus stalks to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle them with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then sprinkle on 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Add the zest of 1/2 lemon and mix with your hands. Thinly slice 2 lemon wheels from the lemon, then cut each in half and add them right on the tray.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and the 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced onion and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until tender. Add the garlic powder and rice and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes until the rice starts to turn light brown. Stir in the wine and cook until the liquid is fully absorbed.
  • Place the tray with the asparagus in the oven and 10 to 15 minutes, until bright green and tender when pierced by a fork at the thickest part. The timing will depend on the thickness of the asparagus spears. (You'll remove it from the oven while you're cooking the risotto in the next step.)
  • Add two ladles of the hot broth to the risotto. Cook, stirring occasionally until the liquid is fully absorbed, then add two more ladles of both. Cook in this same manner for about 12 minutes, adding two ladles and stirring. After the 12 minutes, taste a grain of rice. If it's creamy but still al dente in the center, you're ready for the final step! If not, continue to cook and add broth for a few minutes more.
  • When the rice is al dente, reduce the heat to low. Add two more ladles of broth, the Parmesan cheese and a few grinds of black pepper. Stir vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes until you've got a thick and creamy risotto. Then stir in the asparagus and roasted lemon wedges and serve immediately. Stores refrigerated in a sealed container for 3 days, though the color of the asparagus will fade (reheat before serving).

FROZEN ASPARAGUS RISOTTO WITH BACON



Frozen Asparagus Risotto With Bacon image

Spring brings us all this gorgeous but pricey fresh asparagus. I don't mind the expense for the pleasure of steamed spears. But I've found that in making risotto, using a frozen product often gives as much flavor, and is easier and cheaper. Step 6 is where I veer away from traditional risotto making - something I figured out when my kids were little and I wanted to be with them rather than stand at the stove, stirring. This early prep saves you at least 10 minutes of on-your-way-to-varicose-veins time.

Provided by Elisabetta47

Categories     Short Grain Rice

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

15 asparagus spears, frozen and defrosted
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup onion, minced
1/4 lb bacon, chopped into small pieces
1 cup white wine
2 cups arborio rice (or carnaroli)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 quarts chicken broth, hot (your's or canned that's thinned with water)
1/2 cup parmigiano, grated

Steps:

  • Take a deep breath and say "Risotta-making is NOT difficult.".
  • Cut asparagus into 3/4" pieces. Set aside.
  • In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, saute the onion and bacon in 2 T butter for 3 minutes over medium heat.
  • Increase to high heat, add wine and reduce to half (about 3 minutes).
  • Add rice, salt and pepper and continue stirring on high for 1 minute.
  • Add 2 c of the hot chicken stock, lid the pan and turn off the heat.
  • Go walk your dog, call your girlfriend, write that chapter in your novel. It can sit there until roughly 10-15 minutes before dinner is served.
  • When you return, reheat the broth and crank up the heat on the rice.
  • Stir, stir, stir, adding a cup of hot broth everytime it starts to look a bit dry.
  • Sample a bit: does it seem a bit chewy but almost ready?.
  • If so, add the asparagus and stir until heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Sample again. Ready? Remove from heat and add 1 T butter and cheese.

olive oil flavored cooking spray
1 onion, chopped

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains     Rice Recipes

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 cups vegetable stock, preferably homemade
1/4 cup olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup Arborio or Carnaroli rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 bunch asparagus, trimmed, stalks cut into 2-inch lengths
1 cup thawed frozen peas
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus more for serving

Continue adding 1/2 cup stock in this manner until liquid is creamy and rice is al dente, about 20 minutes total (you may not need to add all the stock).

ASPARAGUS RISOTTO



Asparagus risotto image

Put asparagus centre stage in this satisfying risotto. Top with a sprinkling of parmesan for an easy midweek meal for two

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch asparagus (about 200g)
800ml vegetable stock
1 tbsp olive oil
25g butter
1 small onion , finely chopped
175g risotto rice
100ml white wine or vermouth (optional)
25g parmesan or vegetarian alternative, finely grated

Steps:

  • Snap the woody ends off the asparagus stalks and tip them into a saucepan with the stock. Put on a low heat to very gently simmer. Meanwhile, cut off the tips of the asparagus, add to the stock for exactly 1 min. Scoop out with a slotted spoon and set aside. Finely slice the rest of the stalks into rounds.
  • Heat the oil and half the butter in a heavy, wide pan. Cook the onions gently for 5 mins until soft, stirring often. Add the chopped asparagus stalks and cook for 2 mins more. Add the rice and continously stir for a few minutes until it turns semi-transparent and makes a hissing sound.
  • Stir in the wine, if using - it will evaporate almost immediately. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Add the stock, a ladleful at a time, stirring between each addition until it is absorbed, about 15 mins.
  • Try the rice - it should feel just cooked with a slight bite to it. Stir in the asparagus tips and any last dregs of stock and cook for 1 or 2 mins more. Remove from the heat and top with the remaining butter and most of the parmesan. Season generously, cover and leave for a few minutes to settle.
  • Give the risotto a thorough stir to incorporate the butter and cheese and serve straight away with the remaining parmesan for sprinkling over.
