Portofino Lamb and Artichoke Risotto
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup chopped shallots
- 2 cups uncooked Arborio rice
- 1/2 cup red wine
- 6 cups chicken broth - heated and divided
- 3/4 cup grated Asiago cheese
- 2 cups diced leftover roast lamb
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 (6.5 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, undrained and chopped
- Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir in the onions OR shallots and saute for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Pour in the rice and stir well to coat, about 1 minute.
- Next, pour in the wine and allow it to get absorbed by the rice, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Then, stir in the broth 1/2 cup at a time, waiting until the rice absorbs each 1/2 cup before adding the next 1/2 cup.
- Repeat this until you have used all but 1/4 cup of broth, reserving this for later.
- After about 20 minutes, the rice should be tender but firm.
- Turn off the heat.
- Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of broth, the cheese, leftover lamb, garlic and artichoke hearts.
- Stir well to combine with the rice and serve on warm dinner plates.
