Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 medium shallots, finely chopped
2 cups arborio rice
1 cup sherry wine
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 lb jumbo shrimp, raw shelled deveined
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Steps:

  • Pour the chicken broth into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Adjust the heat to keep the broth hot.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent (about 5 minutes).
  • Add the rice and stir well to coat.
  • Add the wine and stir until the liquid is absorbed.
  • Start to add the chicken broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the rice to absorb the broth before adding the next 1/2 cup.
  • When all the broth has been added and absorbed (about 20 minutes), stir in the pumpkin, cheese and nutmeg. Reduce the heat to low.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat.
  • Add the shrimp and cook until just cooked through (about 2 minutes per side). Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the risotto evenly between plates or pasta bowls and top with the shrimp. Sprinkle with the parsley as desired.
