Best Oven Risotto With Crispy Roasted Mushrooms Recipes

EASY MUSHROOM RISOTTO {OVEN-BAKED AND NO-STIR!}

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400° F. In a large Dutch oven or an oven-proof skillet with a tight-fitting lid, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook until just tender, about 3-5 minutes.
• Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, about 3 minutes, then add garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the rice and cook, stirring, until the rice is well coated in the pan juices, about 1-2 minutes. Add the wine and broth, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover with the lid and transfer the dish to the oven. Bake until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 45 minutes.
• Remove dish from oven, carefully take off the lid, and stir in the peas (if using), Parmesan, and parsley until creamy. I like to use a fork to fluff the rice as I stir, which helps prevent it from clumping together. Serve immediately.

CHEF JOHN'S BAKED MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Melt butter in large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; season with salt, and cook and stir mushrooms until brown. They will begin browning after the moisture evaporates.
• Reduce heat to medium and stir in onion. Sprinkle with black pepper and cayenne pepper. Cook and stir until onions are translucent and soft.
• Pour rice into skillet and stir until each rice grain is coated with butter. Season with salt.
• Pour 1 cup chicken broth into the rice mixture. Raise heat to medium-high and cook, stirring rice until liquid is completely absorbed by the rice.
• Pour another cup chicken stock into the rice and stir until mixture comes to a simmer.
• Bake in preheated oven until grains are almost tender but still slightly firm, about 15 minutes. Transfer skillet to stovetop. Season with more salt, if necessary.
• Combine the remaining 1/2 cup chicken broth and cream; pour into the skillet. Cook on medium heat, stirring constantly until rice is tender, 1 or 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons cream over rice. Add the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano and chives; stir. Serve immediately.
