Risotto with Shrimp and Vegetables

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat, swirling to coat the bottom.
  2. Cook the onion, bell pepper, and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes, or until tender-crisp, stirring frequently.
  3. Stir in the rice.
  4. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
  5. Add 1 1/2 cups broth and the pepper.
  6. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  7. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  8. The rice will be slightly plump, the liquid will not be entirely absorbed, and the mixture will have a thick, soupy or stewlike consistency.
  9. Stir in the wine and remaining 1/2 cup broth.
  10. Increase the heat to high and bring to a simmer.
  11. Reduce the heat to medium high and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring constantly (a small amount of liquid should remain).
  12. Stir in the shrimp, snow peas, and water.
  13. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the liquid is almost absorbed, stirring constantly.
  14. The rice should be just tender and slightly creamy, and the shrimp should be pink.
  15. Stir in the remaining ingredients.
  16. If the liquid is absorbed before the rice reaches the just-tender stage, gradually add more broth, wine, or water.
  17. Arborio rice is usually used in risottos, but you can substitute a medium-grain rice if you prefer.
  18. It wont be quite as creamy, however.
