Shrimp Risotto
- 1 pound shrimp
- 1 each bay leaves
- 6 each peppercorns
- 3 3/4 cups water
- 6 tablespoons butter divided
- 1 each onions chopped
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- 2 cups rice
- 1 1/4 cups white wine dry
- 2 each zucchini cut up
- 6 ounces mushrooms, oyster
- 1/4 cup parmesan, parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated
- Rinse and peel the shrimp; set aside.
- Rinse the shrimp shells, then put them in a saucepan along with the bay leaf, celery leaves, peppercorns, salt, saffron, and water.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes.
- Strain and reserve the stock.
- In a heavy large saucepan or skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter; add the onion and garlic.
- Cook for about 5 minutes or until softened but not colored.
- Add the rice and stir to coat all the grains with butter.
- Add 13 of the reserved stock and bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered, until the stock is absorbed.
- Stirring, gradually add more stock and the wine until it has all been absorbed and the rice is cooked; this will take about 20 minutes.
- In a separate pan, melt the remaining butter, add the shrimp, zucchini, and mushrooms; cook for 3 or 4 minutes.
- Fold the mixture into the rice along with the rice and half of the cheese.
- Taste and add salt, if needed.
- Serve piping hot, sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
