- Add the onion, season with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rice and cook until toasted, about 1 minute, stirring to thoroughly coat each grain with olive oil.
- Crumble the saffron threads into the wine and add it to the rice.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, then cook, stirring continually, until the wine is completely absorbed.
- Add one ladleful (about 1/2 cup) of the warm chicken stock and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed.
