Ingredients

    3.5 cups vegetable broth
    1/2 cup tomato juice
    1 Tbsp olive oil
    6 shallots, chopped
    4 medium zucchini, chopped
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1 1/3 cups Arborio rice
    16 sun-dried tomato halves (not packed in oil), chopped
    1/2 cup chopped parsley
    1 Tbsp fresh marjoram, or 1/2 tsp dried
    2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
    1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
    Chopped parsley, to garnish

Directions

In a medium saucepan, combine the broth and tomato juice; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer.

In a medium nonstick saucepan, heat the oil. Saute the shallots until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the zucchini and wine; cook until the zucchini is softened, about 5 minutes longer. Add the rice; cook, stirring, about 1 minute.

Add 1 cup of the broth mixture, the sun-dried tomatoes, parsley and marjoram; cook, stirring, until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding broth, 1.2 cup at a time, stirring until the broth is absorbed before adding more, until the rice is just tender. The total cooking time should be about 25-30 minutes. Stir in the cheese and pepper; serve at once, garnished with the parsley.
