Indulgent lobster risotto with Arborio rice, Parmesan, white wine, and succulent lobster chunks, a creamy and decadent Italian dish.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 cup olive oil, divided
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1.5 cups Arborio rice
  • 0.5 cup white wine
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup light cream
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 0.25 cup sherry
  • 2 cups cooked lobster meat
  • 0.5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, caramelize and cook onions in 2 tablespoons of oil until very tender, about 20 minutes.
  • In a pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer gently.
  • In a large flat-bottom pan, heat the remaining oil over medium-high heat. Sauté the shallot and garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in Arborio rice and cook until it starts to brown, around 3 minutes. Pour in the wine and cook for 1 minute.
  • Gradually infuse the rice mixture with 1 cup of chicken broth at a time, stirring continuously until each addition is fully absorbed. This process will take about 30 minutes until all the broth has been used up.
  • Combine the honey with the onions and sauté for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Melt butter into rice mixture, then pour in cream and stir until it thickens, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle paprika and cayenne pepper, then blend in sherry. Fold in lobster meat and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted, then add onion mixture and season with salt and pepper.
