Ingredients
-
1 c Arborio Rice
4 c Chicken Broth
1/4 c chopped onion
3 tbsp butter, divided
2 oz (1/4 c) white wine
2 tbsp shredded Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Directions
Heat chicken broth, set aside.
In a 2 quart saucepan, melt 2 tbsp butter. Cook onion in butter until soft and translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add rice, cook and stir 2-3 minutes. Add wine, cook 30 seconds. Begin adding broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, cooking and stirring until the liquid has absorbed before adding more. When rice no longer absorbs all the liquid (depending on the brand of rice you may not use all the broth), and the rice is tender, remove from heat, and stir in the Parmesan, salt, pepper and remaining butter.
