Risotto Primavera
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 3 1/4 cups water
- 2 1/4 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
- 1 1/2 cups chopped onion
- 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup frozen green peas
- 12 ounces asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 ounces pecorino Romano cheese, divided
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Preheat oven to 400u0b0.
- Toss 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and tomatoes on a parchment-lined jelly-roll pan. Bake at 400u0b0 for 15 minutes or until tomatoes burst.
- Heat 3 1/4 cups water and broth in a saucepan over medium heat (do not boil).
- Heat remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion to pan; cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add rice; cook 1 minute. Stir in vinegar; cook 30 seconds or until the liquid is absorbed, stirring constantly. Add broth mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each portion is absorbed before adding the next (about 20 minutes total). Add peas and asparagus to pan with last 1/2 cup of broth mixture. Remove from heat; grate 1 ounce cheese. Stir in grated cheese, remaining 3/8 teaspoon salt, and juice. Spoon about 1 3/4 cups risotto into each of 4 bowls; top evenly with tomatoes. Shave remaining cheese evenly over each serving; sprinkle with pepper.
