Asparagus Risotto

with Garlic Herb Butter and Parmesan

Risotto is the food equivalent of a big bear hug. Sure, whipping up this dish requires a little extra attention (and stirring), but the results are beyond worth it. Luckily, our chefs have made nailing it easier--and tastier--than ever. This version has pops of delicately-crisp asparagus and juicy tomato, and for an extra-special finishing touch, a swirl of garlic herb butter and sprinkle of nutty Parmesan. You had us at risotto.

Instructions

Prep
1

Combine 5 cups water, stock concentrates, and a large pinch of salt in a medium pot. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Halve, peel, and finely dice onion.

Start Risotto
2

Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes. Add rice and 1 TBSP plain butter. Cook, stirring, until rice is translucent, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium.

Add Liquid
3

Add stock, ½ cup at a time, stirring after each addition. Allow rice to absorb most of the liquid before adding more. Continue until rice is al dente and creamy, about 30 minutes.

Cut Veggies
4

While risotto cooks, wash and dry all produce. Trim and discard bottom 2 inches from asparagus. Cut off asparagus tips, then cut stalks on an angle into bite-sized pieces (about 1 inch long). Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces.

Add Veggies
5

When risotto has cooked about 25 minutes, add tomato and asparagus to pan. Cook, stirring, until veggies have softened, 5-7 minutes.

Finish and Serve
6

Stir garlic herb butter and half the Parmesan into risotto. Season with salt and pepper. Divide risotto between plates and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Garnish with chili flakes if desired.
