Creamy Mushroom Risotto

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 3 Servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) Lactantia Butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 1/4 cups (300 mL) short-grain rice
  • 1 cup (250 mL) finely chopped button mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) dry white wine
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt & hot red pepper flakes
  • 10 oz (300 mL) can undiluted chicken broth
  • 2 1/2 cups (625 mL) water
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) Lactantia Spreadable Cream Cheese
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) freshly grated Black Diamond Parmesan (optional)
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) chopped parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until onion is softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  2. Stir in rice until evenly coated. While constantly stirring, add mushrooms, white wine, salt and pepper flakes. Keep stirring frequently until wine is absorbed.
  3. Gradually stir in chicken broth, about a 1/2 cup (125 mL) at a time. Stir frequently until most of the broth is absorbed before adding the next half-cup. Once absorbed, add water, half a cup at a time, stirring until almost all liquid is absorbed before adding more. Stop adding once rice is tender and creamy, in 25 to 30 minutes.
  4. Stir in small spoonfuls of Lactantia Spreadable Cream Cheese, mixing well until all the cheese is used. Sprinkle with Black Diamond Parmesan and chopped parsley, if using.
