CHICKEN AND PANCETTA RISOTTO WITH TALLEGIO

Steps:

• In 4-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add pancetta, and cook until crisp. Transfer to plate using slotted spoon; set aside.
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart microwavable glass measuring cup, microwave broth uncovered on High 3 to 4 minutes or until simmering.
• Cook onion in saucepan with butter 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until translucent. Stir in uncooked rice. Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes or until rice smells toasted. Add wine; cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until almost all liquid is absorbed.
• Increase heat to medium-high; stir in hot broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and waiting 2 to 3 minutes between additions, until all liquid is absorbed, 18 to 24 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Stir in arugula, chicken, cheese and lemon peel. Continue stirring until cheese melts and mixture is heated through. Divide among 4 bowls; top with reserved pancetta.

INSTANT POT® CHICKEN RISOTTO

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as an Instant Pot®), and select Saute function on normal setting according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Mix oregano, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Season chicken with spice blend.
• Heat 1 tablespoon butter and olive oil in the pressure cooker until butter is melted. Quickly brown chicken on all sides, about 3 minutes. Remove chicken. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove onion and garlic from the pot.
• Melt a second tablespoon of butter in the pot, add rice, and stir constantly until fully coated and toasted, about 3 minutes. Pour in wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Cook until wine is absorbed and alcohol cooks off, about 2 minutes. Add chicken stock, chicken, and onion mixture to the pot; mix until well combined. Turn off Saute function.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions, and set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Stir Parmesan cheese and remaining tablespoon of butter into the risotto. Season with salt and pepper, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve.

SPINACH RISOTTO WITH TALEGGIO

Steps:

• Cut the rind off the taleggio and discard. Dice the cheese into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside at room temperature as you prepare the rice.
• Line a colander with a clean dish towel and place spinach inside. Heat about 8 cups of water until boiling, then pour over spinach; the spinach will wilt. Let spinach sit until cool enough to handle, then use the dish towel to squeeze out the water. Transfer spinach to a food processor and blend with 1 tablespoon butter until smooth. (You'll end up with about 1 cup of purée.) Reserve.
• Melt remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, celery and garlic; cook until translucent, about 7 minutes. Stir in rice and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook until toasted and golden, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in wine and cook until it's absorbed, about 3 minutes. Stir in stock, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring often but not necessarily continuously, until the stock is finished and the rice is cooked through but not mushy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in spinach purée, then taste and add more salt, if needed. Add taleggio and stir to melt. Serve immediately.
