The Most Amazing Crab Risotto
- 2 tablespoons Bertolli Olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 cup Bertolli Arborio rice
- 1/4 cup brandy
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup fish broth
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 1/4 cup chopped chives
- Zest (fine) of one lemon
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 lb shelled cooked crab meat
- In a 3-4 quart pan over medium/high heat, saute onion in the olive oil until softened and slightly browned, 5-6 minutes. Add rice and stir until rice is opaque and onions are limp, about 3 minutes.
- Add brandy and cook, uncovered until absorbed, stirring constantly. Add white wine and cook until absorbed, stirring constantly. Add the mixed heated broth one cup at a time cooking until each cup is absorbed, stirring constantly. This will produce a risotto which is cooked al dente. If you prefer a softer texture, add one addition cup of chicken broth and cook until absorbed, stirring constantly. Total cooking time is approximately 25 minutes.
- Take off heat and gently add chopped chives, parmesan cheeses, lemon zest and crab. Let stand 5 minutes and serve with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese a few chive springs a pinch of lemon zest.
