Pea and Chorizo Risotto
-
In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced chorizo and cook until it becomes crispy and releases its flavorful oils.
-
Add finely chopped onions to the pan and sauté until they become translucent.
-
Stir in Arborio rice, ensuring it's well-coated with the chorizo and onion mixture. Toast the rice for 1-2 minutes until it becomes slightly translucent around the edges.
-
Pour in white wine and stir until most of the liquid has evaporated.
-
Begin adding hot chicken or vegetable stock, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the liquid to be absorbed before adding the next ladle of stock. Continue this process until the rice is creamy and cooked to al dente texture.
-
Stir in frozen peas during the last few minutes of cooking to heat through.
-
Remove the risotto from heat, and stir in grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
-
Serve the Pea and Chorizo Risotto hot, garnished with additional Parmesan and parsley. Enjoy your flavorful and comforting risotto!
