Shrimp And Radicchio Risotto Recipes

SHRIMP, RADICCHIO, & RED WINE RISOTTO

Steps:

• Bring broth and water to a simmer in a 3 quart saucepan and maintain simmer. Cook onion in butter with bay leaf and salt in a heavy pot over medium heat, stirring until onion is pale golden, about 10 minutes. While onion is cooking, cook the radicchio in boiling salt water until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and transfer to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop the cooking. Drain and squeeze dry. Add rice to the onions and cook, stirring for about 2 minutes. Add the wine and boil, stirring until most of the wine is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Stir in ½ cup simmering broth mixture and cook, stirring constantly until most of the broth is absorbed. Continue cooking risotto and adding broth about ½ cup at a time until rice is tender and creamy-looking, about 15 minutes. Discard the bay leaf and add the radicchio and cheese and cook until heated through. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

SHRIMP-AND- RADICCHIO RISOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a bowl, dissolve the salt in 2 cups of water, add the shrimp and soak for 30 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold running water.
• Place the radicchio halves in a pan just large enough to hold them. Put a tablespoon of butter on each half and roast, basting frequently for 40 minutes. Cool; slice thinly.
• Warm the stock in a pot over low heat. With the oil and remaining butter, saute the onion until softened in a large pan. Add the rice to the pan and stir for 2 minutes.
• Add 1/2 cup of the stock and gently stir over medium heat until it is mostly absorbed. Continue with the remaining liquid, adding 1/2 cup at a time as the rice dries, stirring and scraping the rice off the bottom and sides of the pot.
• When 1 cup of the stock remains, add half of it, along with the radicchio; stir 2 minutes. Pour in the remaining stock and stir briefly. Smooth the top of the rice and place the raw shrimp on top. Add the salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover the pot. Over low heat, steam until the shrimp are done, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat; stir. Serve, adjusting the salt and pepper to taste.

RISOTTO WITH SHRIMP AND RADICCHIO

Steps:

• Bring a pot with 2 quarts (2 L) of water to a boil. Add the shrimp, blanch 30 seconds, then drain.
• In a large, heavy saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons (60g) of the butter. Add the onion and cook over medium-low heat until it is translucent. Stir in the rice. Cook, stirring, about 5 minutes, until the rice is well coated with the butter and begins to whiten. Have the stock barely simmering in another saucepan. Add the wine to the rice, stir, then add 2 ladles of the hot stock.
• Cook 3 minutes.
• Stir in the radicchio.
• Continue adding stock, a couple of ladles at a time, stirring and adding more as the stock is absorbed by the rice.
• Regulate the heat so the rice and stock become somewhat tender but still a bit hard in the middle. There should still be some stock left at this point.
• Add all but 4 of the shrimp.
• Stir, then continue adding stock for another few minutes, as needed, until the rice is plump, offers only the slightest resistance to the bite, and there is just enough thickened, creamy, sauce-like broth to moisten the rice.
• Stir in the cognac and remaining butter.
• Season with salt and pepper. Pour the risotto into plates, garnish each serving with a shrimp, top with a bit of parsley, and serve at once.

RISOTTO WITH SHRIMP AND RADICCHIO

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat the oil, add the medium onion and saute 5 minutes. Add the celery and tomato and saute 2 minutes. Add the shrimp shells, fish bones, 1 cup wine and water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 20 minutes; strain. Place broth in a saucepan and keep at a bare simmer.
• In a large, heavy saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat. Add small onion and cook until translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Stir in 1/3 cup wine, then 1/2 cup broth. Cook 3 minutes. Stir in radicchio.
• Add broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and adding more broth as it is absorbed by the rice. Adjust heat so rice and broth cook at a steady simmer. After about 15 minutes, the rice should be somewhat tender and some broth should be left. Stir in all but 4 shrimp.
• Cook another few minutes, adding broth as needed, until rice is al dente. Stir in brandy and 2 tablespoons butter. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with shrimp and parsley; serve immediately.

Steps:

• Put stock in a medium saucepan and keep hot over low heat.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan. Add garlic and onion and cook 3 minutes over medium-high heat.
• Add the rice and stir to coat with butter. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 3 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until evaporated.
• Add enough hot stock to cover the rice. Stir constantly until most of the liquid has evaporated. Repeat until the risotto is creamy and tender, about 20 minutes. About 3 minutes before the risotto is finished cooking, stir in the shrimp and radicchio.
• Remove from heat. Stir in remaining tablespoon of butter, salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP RISOTTO

Steps:

• Peel and devein shrimp, reserving shells. Heat stock in a large saucepan and add shells. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Chop shrimp into bite-sized morsels. Toss with olive oil and garlic; cover and refrigerate.
• Strain stock and discard shells. Keep warm on low heat.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Add shallots; cook until softened, but not browned, about 4 minutes. Add dry rice and stir until each grain is coated and starts to turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Raise heat to medium. Add wine, stir and simmer until mostly evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Ladle 1/2 cup of warm stock into the rice mixture; stir constantly until stock is absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes. Add rosemary and saffron and another 1/2 cup of stock; stir until absorbed, about 3 minutes. Repeat with about 4 more cups of stock, 10 to 15 minutes. Add marinated shrimp to the remaining 1 cup stock; stir for 1 minute and pour mixture into the rice. Cook and stir until risotto is tender yet firm to the bite, 6 to 8 minutes more.
• Stir Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter into the risotto. Stir until creamy. Serve immediately in warmed bowls.

RISOTTO WITH RADICCHIO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot.
• Put the broth on to heat in a separate pot.
• Saute the onion in the oil until it takes on a little color.
• Meanwhile wash the radicchio and cut off core.
• Add the rice to the onion and stir until it is well coated.
• Add the wine to rice and onion and stir; let the wine cook away, about 2 minutes, stirring.
• Shred the radicchio with a knife.
• Add about a cup of simmering chicken broth to rice and cook over high heat, stirring very often until broth has evaporated. Repeat the procedure, this time adding the shredded radicchio. Continue adding broth and stirring, cooking until broth evaporates. You may not need all the broth to cook the rice.
• Meanwhile finely grate the cheese.
• When rice is tender and there is still enough broth left in the rice to make it slightly runny, add the cheese, stirring well, season with pepper and serve.

RISOTTO WITH RADICCHIO

Steps:

• In a large heavy saucepan or skillet, soften the onion in the butter. Add the rice and cook over fairly high heat, stirring constantly, until the grains turn opaque.
• Add the raddichio leaves, saute for one minute, then pour in the wine. Stir the rice well to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. When the liquid has evaporated, add a ladleful of hot broth. Repeat this procedure until the rice is almost tender but firm. If you run out of stock, add warm water instead.
• Turn off the heat, add cream and season the risotto with salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese to taste. Serve immediately, with more cheese to pass separately at the table.
