Best Chicken Risotto With Peas And Parma Ham Recipes

HAM, PEA AND PARMESAN RISOTTO

Steps:

• 1. Sautee onion in butter until translucent but not brown.
• 2. Add pancetta if uncooked halfway through onion cooking (if using cooked ham or pancetta, you will add near the end).
• 3. After pancetta is cooked, add rice and stir constantly until it soaks up the butter and pancetta drippings (about 30 seconds).
• 4. Add white wine and let rice absorb until only a small amount of liquid is left.
• 5. Add chicken stock about 100-200 ml at a time. Give the rice a stir and wait for it to absorb almost all the liquid before adding more. Keep stock warm if possible.
• 6. As you add the last batch of chicken stock, add peas and let them heat in the liquid as it cooks off. If you are using cooked ham, add it now too.
• 7. Once rice has absorbed all the liquid, add parmesan cheese and fold inches I like to add enough cheese that when you stir it, you can see the melted cheese stretch between the rice.
• 8. Finish with lemon zest and stir in gently.
• 9. Serve with crusty bread and salad.

RISOTTO WITH PEAS AND HAM

Steps:

• Heat the broth and garlic in a saucepan over medium heat until steaming; keep warm. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Add the leek and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice; cook, stirring, until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the wine and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add 3 cups hot broth to the rice; cook, stirring constantly, until mostly absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 3 more cups hot broth; continue cooking, stirring, until the risotto is tender and thickened, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and stir in the peas, ham, cheese and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in more hot broth if the risotto is too thick; season with salt and pepper. Top each serving with mint, more cheese and the lemon zest.

CHICKEN RISOTTO WITH PEAS AND PARMA HAM

Steps:

• Heat the butter and half the oil in a large pan. Add the chicken and heat until just cooked through.
• Meanwhile, put the stock and water in a pan and bring to a simmer with the lid on.
• Remove the chicken and set aside, then add the remaining oil to the pan. Cook the onion and garlic over a low-medium heat until soft, then add the rice to the pan.
• Heat for a few minutes, stirring until the rice is coated in the oil.
• Add the wine and cook until it has all been absorbed, then add a ladle of the stock/water. Stir until it has all been absorbed and repeat until the rice is cooked to your liking (you may not need all the stock mix).
• Meanwhile, heat a dry frying pan and add the sheets of ham. Cook, turning occasionally, until nicely crisp, then cut roughly.
• Add in the peas and chicken and stir until heated through.
• Mix in the sage, most of the parmesan and about half of the ham.
• Season to taste then serve, topping each individual serving with a little of the reserved parmesan and crispy ham.

EASY PARMESAN "RISOTTO"

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the rice and 4 cups of the chicken stock in a Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Cover and bake for 45 minutes, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is al dente. Remove from the oven, add the remaining cup of chicken stock, the Parmesan, wine, butter, salt, and pepper, and stir vigorously for 2 to 3 minutes, until the rice is thick and creamy. Add the peas and stir until heated through. Serve hot.

CHEESE, HAM & PEA RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish and cook the onion for 5 mins over a medium heat to soften. Stir in the garlic and the risotto rice, and cook for another 30 secs-1 min. Pour in the stock and bring to the boil, then cover and cook for about 15 mins on a medium heat, stirring every so often. The rice should be almost done.
• Add the peas, ham, mustard and cheeses to the pan, and cook for another few mins until the rice is just right and the cheese melted. Season and serve topped with a handful of the pea shoots and a little extra cheese, if you like.

RISOTTO WITH PEAS

Steps:

• In a medium-size heavy saucepan, warm the oil. Add the onion and cook until barely softened, about 5 minutes. Add the peas, and shaking the pan to avoid burning, cook for 5 minutes. Remove and puree half the mixture and reserve. Also reserve the other, unpureed half.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the pot. Add the rice and cook over medium heat until it becomes opaque. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until the wine has evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add the broth and the pureed pea mixture.
• Cook at a lively simmer for 15 minutes. Add half the remaining unpureed pea mixture, stir and cook 10 minutes longer. Remove from the heat, add the remaining pea mixture and butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the cheese and serve immediately.
