How to Make Prawn Goat Cheese Risotto Weight Watcher Friendly

  1. Heat vegetable broth in a saucepan and keep warm over low heat.
  2. Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add Arborio rice and toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until translucent.
  4. Add white wine and cook until absorbed.
  5. Add 1 ladle of warm broth to the rice, stirring constantly until absorbed. Continue adding broth, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly, until each ladle is absorbed before adding the next. This process should take about 20-25 minutes.
  6. Stir in the cooked prawns, crumbled goat cheese, and Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley (optional).
