Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 shallots, minced
1 cup Arborio rice
1/8 teaspoon saffron
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups homemade or low-sodium chicken stock, skimmed of fat
6 sage leaves (about 1 tablespoon), coarsely chopped, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium ovenproof saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallots; cook, stirring until shallots are translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add rice, and stir until grains are shiny and well coated with oil, about 2 minutes more. Add saffron and wine, and continue cooking and stirring until liquid is absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add stock, sage, salt, and pepper. Cover saucepan; transfer to oven. Bake until all of the stock is absorbed and rice is tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove the cover from saucepan. Dot the top of the rice with butter, arrange sage over the rice, and bake until butter is melted, about 5 minutes more. Serve immediately.

This is a mild, smooth and creamy rice dish that works nicely as a foil for spicy entrees. Terrific comfort food. Because the risotto is baked, you don't have to stand and stir it for twenty-five minutes. Love the sage in this.
