Best Caramelized Onion Risotto With Corn And Bacon Recipes

CHICKEN, MUSHROOM AND CARAMELIZED ONION RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. When shimmering, add onion, garlic and mushrooms. Turn heat down to medium-low and saute slowly, stirring frequently, until onions are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar, stir well and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a saucepan over medium heat. When shimmering, add rice. Stir until rice turns opaque. Add white wine and simmer until nearly dry. Add chicken broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently, waiting until each addition is nearly absorbed before adding the next. Continue adding hot broth until rice is fully cooked, about 40-45 minutes.
• Stir onions into rice. When heated through, remove from heat and add butter and chicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with thyme and parmesan cheese before serving.

CARAMELIZED ONION RISOTTO WITH BACON AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• 1. Cook the diced bacon in a dutch oven over medium heat until brown and crispy, about 6 to 7 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels and set aside.
• 2. Add the onions to the bacon fat in the dutch oven and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook onions until well browned, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place cooked onions on a plate and set aside. Rinse and dry dutch oven.
• 3. Simmer the chicken broth in a saucepan and keep hot on the stove over low heat.
• 4. Heat the oil in the now empty dutch oven over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the rice, cook and stir for 2 minutes.
• 5. Add 1 cup of the hot chicken broth to the rice and continue stirring until the rice has absorbed the liquid. Continue adding broth 1 to 2 cups at a time while continuously stirring, until rice has absorbed the liquid and mixture is creamy, about 25 to 30 minutes.
• 6. Turn off the heat and stir in the onions, bacon, Parmesan cheese and thyme.
• 7. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
