How to Make Artichoke And Red Pepper Risotto

  1. Heat 4 cups of vegetable broth to near boiling in a saucepan and keep hot.
  2. Chop 1 cup of mixed bell peppers (red, green, yellow, orange) and 1 (14-ounce) can of artichoke hearts, drained. Sauté in 2 tablespoons olive oil for 5 minutes until slightly softened.
  3. Finely chop 1/2 medium yellow onion. Add to the pan and sauté for another 3 minutes.
  4. Add 1 ½ cups Arborio rice and toast for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  5. Pour in ½ cup dry white wine and cook until almost completely absorbed.
  6. Add 1 cup of hot broth to the rice, stirring constantly until absorbed.
  7. Continue adding broth, 1 cup at a time, stirring frequently until each addition is absorbed. This process should take about 15-20 minutes. The rice should be creamy and al dente.
  8. Stir in the cooked bell peppers and artichoke hearts.
  9. Remove from heat and stir in ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
  10. Serve immediately. Makes 2 servings.
