Chris Kimballs Crockpot Parmesan Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Coat slow cooker with vegetable oil spray. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 12_inch skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in rice and cook, stirring often, until ends of rice kernels are transparent, about 3 minutes. Stir in wine and cook until fully absorbed, about 1 minute; transfer to slow cooker.
• Bring broth and water to boil in saucepan. Stir 3 cups hot broth mixture into slow cooker. Cover and cook until rice is tender, about 2 hours on high.
• Return reserved broth mixture to boil. Slowly stream 2 cups more hot broth mixture into slow cooker, stirring gently, until liquid is absorbed and risotto is creamy, about 1 minute.
• Gently stir in Parmesan, chives, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and lemon juice. (Adjust risotto consistency with additional hot broth mixture as needed.) Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. (This dish does not hold well on warm setting.).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the rice and 4 cups of the chicken stock in a Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Cover and bake for 45 minutes, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is al dente. Remove from the oven, add the remaining cup of chicken stock, the Parmesan, wine, butter, salt, and pepper, and stir vigorously for 2 to 3 minutes, until the rice is thick and creamy. Add the peas and stir until heated through. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Bring the chicken stock to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium heat.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a separate large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and a touch of salt and cook, stirring often, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until evaporated, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Add 1 cup simmering chicken stock to the rice and cook, stirring constantly, until absorbed. Repeat, adding the stock 1 cup at a time, until the rice is al dente and creamy in texture, about 20 minutes. (You might not use all of the stock.)
• When the rice is al dente, remove from the heat and stir in the cheese, chives and lemon juice. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil.
• Divide the risotto among shallow bowls. Drizzle with olive oil, top with the lemon zest and more chives, and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a medium ovenproof saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, and saute until translucent. Stir in the rice, and cook for one minute.
• Add the chicken broth to the pan, and bring to a boil. Cover, and transfer to the oven. Bake until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 12 to 15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.
• Remove from the oven, and stir in the cream and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat broth and keep warm. In a Dutch oven, saute onion in oil until tender. Add rice and garlic; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes. Reduce heat; stir in wine. Cook and stir until all of the liquid is absorbed. , Add heated broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to absorb between additions. Cook just until risotto is creamy and rice is almost tender, about 20 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients; cook and stir until heated through. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat stock in saucepan over medium heat; keep at a low simmer.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
• Add shallots to oil, and cook, stirring, until translucent.
• Add rice, and cook, stirring, until rice begins to make a clicking sound like glass beads, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add wine to rice mixture.
• Cook, stirring, until wine is absorbed by rice.
• Using a ladle, add 3/4 cup hot stock to rice.
• Using a wooden spoon, stir rice constantly, at a moderate speed.
• When rice mixture is just thick enough to leave a clear wake behind the spoon, add another 3/4 cup stock.
• Continue adding stock 3/4 cup at a time and stirring constantly until rice is mostly translucent but still opaque in the center.
• Rice should be al dente but not crunchy.
• As rice nears doneness, watch carefully and add smaller amounts of liquid to make sure it does not overcook.
• The final mixture should be thick enough that grains of rice are suspended in liquid the consistency of heavy cream.
• It will thicken slightly when removed from heat.
• Remove from heat.
• Stir in butter, parmesan cheese, and parsley; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the mixture among four shallow bowls, mounding risotto in the center, and grate or shave additional parmesan over risotto.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix chicken broth, rice, olive oil, wine, garlic, onion flakes, salt, and black pepper in a slow cooker. Cook on High for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Stir in Parmesan cheese; cook uncovered until Parmesan cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the basil oil in a saute pan over medium heat and saute the shallots until they have softened.
• Lightly coat the insert of crock pot with some extra basil olive oil.
• Add the sauted shallots and basil oil to the crockpot insert.
• Add the rice and coat it with the mixture.
• Stir in the wine.
• Stir in the chicken broth.
• Add the salt.
• Cover and cook on high for about 2 hours or until all the liquid is absorbed.
• Just before serving, stir in the cheese.
• Have extra grated cheese to put on top of each serving.
• If I was going to add shrimp, chicken, corn, salmon etc.
• ,I would add it after the cheese had been stirred in, allowing just enough time to warm up the item but not to overcook it.

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add in the chopped onion and fresh garlic (if using); saute for about 3-4 minutes, or until soft but not brown.
• Add in the rice; cook/stir for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Add in the remaining ingredients; bring to a boil.
• Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until all of the liquid is absorbed, and the rice is tender.
• Delicious!

Steps:

• Bring the stock to the boil and keep on a low simmer. In a separate pan, melt half the butter over a medium heat. Stir in the onions and sweat gently for 8-10 mins until soft but not coloured, stirring occasionally. Stir the rice into the onions until completely coated in the butter, then stir continuously until the rice is shiny and the edges of the grain start to look transparent.
• Pour in the wine and simmer until totally evaporated. Add the stock, a ladleful at a time, stirring with each addition until absorbed. Continue adding stock a ladleful at a time and stirring the rice over a low heat for 25-30 mins, until the rice is cooked al dente (with a slightly firm, starchy bite in the middle). The risotto should be creamy and slightly soupy. When you draw a wooden spoon through it, there should be a wake that holds for a few moments but not longer.
• When the rice is cooked, turn off the heat, stir in the grated Parmesan, the remaining butter, half the oil and the chopped herbs, then season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and leave the risotto to rest for a few mins. Now make your herb salad. Roughly chop the chives, then mix with the whole herb leaves, remaining olive oil and the balsamic vinegar. Give the risotto a final stir, then serve in bowls topped with some of the herb salad and some shaved Parmesan.
