How to Make Shrimp And Sun Dried Tomato Risotto With Asparagus
- Blanch asparagus: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and cook for 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking.
- Chop asparagus: Once cool, chop asparagus into 1-inch pieces and set aside.
- Sauté aromatics: In a 3-quart skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium-low heat. Add shallot and garlic and sauté for 2 minutes until softened.
- Toast rice: Add Arborio rice and toast, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes until the edges are translucent.
- Deglaze with wine: Pour in white wine and sun-dried tomatoes. Cook, stirring constantly, until the wine is almost completely absorbed.
- Add stock gradually: Add 1 cup of hot stock to the rice, stirring constantly until absorbed. Continue adding stock, 1 cup at a time, stirring frequently, until all stock is absorbed and the rice is creamy (about 20-25 minutes).
- Stir in asparagus and cheese: Once 3 ½ cups of stock have been added, stir in the asparagus, Parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes.
- Cook shrimp: Add shrimp and the remaining ¼ cup of stock. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until shrimp are pink and cooked through.
- Finish and serve: Stir in the juice of ½ lemon. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
