Spring Risotto with Peas and Zucchini
Serves 6


You will need:


2 can (14.5 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 tbsp butter
1 to 2 large zucchini (1 pound), cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

Directions:
Spring Risotto With Peas And Zucchini
Heat broth and 2 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan over low heat; keep
warm. Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 3-quart saucepan over
medium heat. Add zucchini; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring
often, until zucchini is golden, 8 to 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon,
transfer zucchini to a plate.
Reduce heat to a medium-low. Add onion; cook until soft, 5 minutes.
Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Raise heat to
medium. Add rice; cook, stirring, until translucent around edges, about 3
minutes. Add wine; cook until absorbed, about 2 minutes.
Cook, adding 1 cup hot broth at time (stir until almost all liquid is
absorbed before adding more), until rice is tender, 25 to 30 minutes total.
Add zucchini and peas; cook until peas are bright green, 2 minutes.
Remove from heat. Stir in remaining tablespoon butter and Parmesan.
Serve, topped with more cheese.
