Scampi Cream Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Make the clam broth: Combine 4 1/2 cups water, the clam juice, lemon zest and parsley stems in a saucepan. Smash 3 garlic cloves and add to the pan along with the shrimp tails. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
• Meanwhile, chop the onion and remaining 3 garlic cloves. Heat 2 tablespoons butter and the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt; cook 30 seconds. Add the rice and cook until it starts to toast, 2 minutes. Add the wine, scraping up any browned bits, and cook until absorbed, about 3 minutes.
• Strain the clam broth, then return to the saucepan and keep warm over low heat. Add 3 cups clam broth and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the rice and cook, stirring, until mostly absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 3 more cups clam broth and simmer, stirring, until the rice is just tender and the liquid is thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the shrimp in the last 2 minutes of cooking and cook until opaque.
• Remove the risotto from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, the lemon juice and most of the chopped parsley. Add enough clam broth until creamy; season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining parsley.

Cancel Saute function.
