Time 41m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 ½ cups chicken stock
¼ cup olive oil, or more to taste, divided
¼ cup unsalted butter, divided
½ pound asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces on the bias
⅓ pound fresh morel mushrooms, halved
1 shallot, minced
1 cup Arborio rice
¼ cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
⅓ cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or to taste
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 ½ tablespoons high-quality balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Place chicken stock in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until butter starts to bubble. Add asparagus and morel mushrooms; saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate with any accumulated juices.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in the same saucepan. Add shallot; cook and stir until softened, about 1 minute. Stir in arborio rice and cook until it starts to toast, about 1 minute. Pour in wine and cook until evaporated. Stir in thyme.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of the simmering stock over the rice. Cook, stirring constantly, until stock is absorbed. Repeat with remaining stock until rice is tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Stir in asparagus and mushrooms with their juices and continue until flavors combine, about 3 minutes more.
  • Remove rice from the heat. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and parsley. Season with salt and black pepper. Garnish with balsamic vinegar and additional olive oil before serving.

WILD MUSHROOM AND ASPARAGUS RISOTTO



Wild Mushroom and Asparagus Risotto image

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     side-dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 cups chicken broth
1 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup finely chopped onion
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups Arborio rice
5 ounces wild mushrooms, cooked and coarsely chopped, approximately 3/4 cup
7 ounces asparagus, cooked and cut into 1-inch pieces, approximately 1 1/2 cups
2 ounces grated Parmesan, approximately 1/2 cup
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • In an electric kettle or medium saucepan with a lid, combine chicken broth and white wine and heat just to simmering. Keep warm.
  • In a large 3 to 4-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and a pinch of salt and sweat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and stir. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until the grains are translucent around the edges. Be careful not to allow the grains or the onions to brown.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Add enough of the wine and chicken stock just to cover the top of the rice. Stir or move the pan often, until the liquid is completely absorbed into rice. Once absorbed, add another amount of liquid just to cover the rice and continue stirring or moving as before. There should be just enough liquid left to repeat 1 more time. It should take approximately 35 to 40 minutes for all of the liquid to be absorbed. After the last addition of liquid has been mostly absorbed, add the mushrooms and asparagus and stir until risotto is creamy and asparagus is heated through. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan, lemon zest, and nutmeg. Taste and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • *Cook's Note: If fresh wild mushrooms are not available, reconstituted dried mushrooms can be used instead. Place 2 ounces of dried mushrooms into a bowl and cover with warm water. Allow to sit for about 30 minutes or until all the mushrooms are soft and pliable.

GOLDEN MUSHROOM, PEA, AND ASPARAGUS RISOTTO (VEGAN)



Golden Mushroom, Pea, and Asparagus Risotto (Vegan) image

Recipe from The Vegan Chef and placed here for safe keeping. . .have some nutritional yeast to use up and this sounds great!! Serves 4 as a main dish or 6 as a side dish. NOTE: After making this, I have to say it was WAY better on day 2 and 3 once the flavors all came together. I also would make the saffron, dill and peas optional. I used regular button mushrooms with great results. And I have to say that I made 1/2 with parmesan cheese and 1/2 with the nutritional yeast. . .the yeast batch was MUCH better. . .who would have guessed?!?!?!?!?

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 1/2-4 cups vegetable stock
1 lb asparagus, tough ends removed
1 cup onion, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups cremini mushrooms, destemmed, cut in half lengthwise, and sliced (may sub button mushrooms)
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 cup arborio rice
1/2 cup white wine (optional)
1/4 teaspoon saffron thread (optional)
sea salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup frozen peas (optional)
1/3 cup nutritional yeast flakes
1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
2 tablespoons freshly chopped dill (optional)
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, place the vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
  • Slice the asparagus spears diagonally into 1-inch pieces and place them in a fine mesh strainer. Place the strainer in the boiling vegetable stock and cook the asparagus in the stock for 2 minutes to blanch them.
  • Remove the strainer from the stock and set the asparagus aside. Reduce the heat of the stock to low.
  • In a large saucepan, saute the onion in the olive oil for 3 minutes to soften. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute the mixture an additional 3 minutes.
  • Add the Arborio rice, stir well to coat it with the sauteed vegetable mixture, and cook an additional 2 minutes while stirring constantly or until rice turns opaque.
  • Add the white wine (or use some of the stock if omitting) and saffron threads, season to taste with salt and pepper, and stir well to combine. Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture while stirring occasionally until all of the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Add 1/2 cup of the simmering vegetable stock and continue to cook, while stirring occasionally, until all of the stock has been absorbed.
  • Repeat the procedure of adding a 1/2 cup of simmering stock, stirring, and cooking until fully absorbed before adding additional stock, until all but a 1/2 cup of stock remains.
  • Add the blanched asparagus, along with the remaining ingredients, and stir well to combine. Cook the mixture an additional 2-3 minutes while stirring constantly, adding the remaining stock, as needed, so that the rice is tender and the risotto has a creamy consistency.
  • Taste and adjust the seasonings, as desired.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon butter
3/4 cup sweet onion, such as Vidalia, finely diced
1 1/3 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 ounces cremini mushrooms or 4 ounces button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/2 lb fresh asparagus, thinly sliced on the diagonal
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon butter
2 cups shredded cold cooked chicken
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Heat broth in a small saucepan, or in microwave, until just boiling. Keep hot over low heat.
