Best Creamy Shrimp Cauliflower Risotto Recipes
CAULIFLOWER "RISOTTO" WITH SHRIMP AND PEAS
This dish is a satisfying mash-up of two comfort food classics-cauliflower with cheese sauce and risotto with shrimp and peas-which makes for a healthy, modern, and doubly comforting skillet dinner. The cauliflower, which has been grated so it resembles rice, is simmered briefly with flour-thickened milk and Parmesan cheese, forming a creamy sauce to coat the vegetable and create a risotto-like base. Shrimp and peas are added to the skillet, and minutes later the dish is ready to be served, garnished beautifully with ribbons of fresh basil and a shower of Parmesan.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened, 2 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower rice, salt, and pepper and cook for 2 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the cauliflower and stir to incorporate, then add the milk and cook, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a gentle boil. Stir in 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese until incorporated, then add the shrimp and the peas.
- Return to a simmer, then continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and no longer translucent and the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes more. Season with additional salt to taste, then serve immediately, garnished with basil and the remaining Parmesan.
