Mushroom Thyme Risotto image

This is a combination of a few different risotto recipes since I couldn't find one that was exactly what I wanted. I wanted to remember how I put this together so next time I make it I won't have to guess!

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon butter
8 ounces baby portabella mushrooms, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/4 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
2 fresh thyme sprigs
pepper
chives, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat chicken broth to a boil, reduce to simmer, and keep hot.
  • In a separate pan, melt butter and saute mushrooms until soft.
  • Add olive oil to pan and saute onions for 4 minutes.
  • Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
