Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 quart chicken stock or 1 quart low sodium chicken broth
3/4 lb medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup arborio rice (8 1/2 ounces)
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chopped basil leaves
1/4 cup soft fresh goat cheese (1 1/2 ounces)
2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a simmer. Add the shrimp, cover and simmer over moderate heat until just cooked, about 2 minutes.
  • With a slotted spoon, transfer the shrimp to a plate to cool. Cover the stock and keep it at barely a simmer.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter in the olive oil. Add the garlic and onion and cook over low heat, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the rice and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until it is coated with oil, about 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer until almost evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add 1 scant cup of the simmering stock and cook, stirring constantly, until it is absorbed. Continue to add the stock, 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly until it is absorbed. The risotto is done when the rice is tender but still slightly firm and creamy, about 25 minutes total.

Shrimp 'n' Spinach Risotto image
