Risotto Of Lobster With Green Peas Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium pot, add the chicken stock and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan over a medium-low heat. Add the onions, garlic and a touch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rice and increase the heat to medium-high. Toast the rice, stirring, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the white wine and cook until it has reduced to almost dry and you hear a sizzle. Add the simmering chicken stock 1 cup at a time and cook, continuously stirring, until it has absorbed almost all the way. Repeat this process until the rice is almost cooked; this will range from 15 to 20 minutes, depending on your rice. The rice kernels should still be a little al dente and the risotto should be creamy and a pourable consistency, not dry or clumpy.
• In a small saucepan, add about 1/2 cup simmering chicken stock and 2 tablespoons butter. Add the peas, then season with a little salt and pepper and stir. Place over low heat and cook until the peas are warmed through. Add the chives and tarragon. Transfer half of the peas to a bowl and mash with a muddler or fork. Return the mashed peas back to the pot of peas and keep warm. If the mixture looks dry, add 1/4 cup more of the stock.
• When the risotto is finished, shut the heat off and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoon olive oil, half the Parmesan and all the lemon zest. Let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir and taste for seasoning. Add a little more Parmesan if needed. Add the white balsamic vinegar and lemon juice and stir. Garnish with more Parmesan and the pea mixture. Serve in warm bowls or on warm plates.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the leeks and fennel and saute for 5 to 7 minutes, until tender. Add the rice and stir for a minute to coat with the vegetables, oil, and butter. Add the white wine and simmer over low heat, stirring constantly, until most of the wine has been absorbed. Add the chicken stock, 2 ladles at a time, stirring almost constantly and waiting for the stock to be absorbed before adding more. This process should take 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the asparagus diagonally in 1 1/2-inch lengths and discard the tough ends. Blanch in boiling salted water for 4 to 5 minutes, until al dente. Drain and cool immediately in ice water. (If using fresh peas, blanch them in boiling water for a few minutes until the starchiness is gone.)
• When the risotto has been cooking for 15 minutes, drain the asparagus and add it to the risotto with the peas, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Continue cooking and adding stock, stirring almost constantly, until the rice is tender but still firm.
• Whisk the lemon juice and mascarpone together in a small bowl. When the risotto is done, turn off the heat and stir in the mascarpone mixture plus the Parmesan cheese and chives. Set aside, off the heat, for a few minutes, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve hot with a sprinkling of chives and more Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 3-1/2 quart sauté pan over medium heat.
• Add onion and garlic.
• Cook, stirring often, until onion is soft but not browned, about 4- 5 minutes.
• Add rice.
• Cook, stirring, until grains look opaque, about 2- 3 minutes.
• Add broth, wine and frozen peas.
• Stir to combine.
• Increase heat to medium-high, cover and bring to a boil, stirring often.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered.
• Stir occasionally.
• Cook until rice is tender and almost all of the broth has been absorbed, about 25- 30 minutes.
• Rice should be tender but not mushy.
• Remove from heat.
• Add cheese and stir to combine.
• Season with salt and pepper if desired.
• Serve warm, with additional grated cheese to top if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the stock in a medium saucepan and keep it simmering over low heat.
• In a medium (10 to 11-inch) pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots, fennel, and poblano pepper and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the garlic, thyme, saffron, and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat all the grains with butter and oil. Add the wine and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes, until almost all the liquid has been absorbed. Add 1/2 cup of the simmering stock to the rice and cook, stirring frequently (see Cook's Note). When the stock is almost completely absorbed, continue adding stock, 1/2 cup at a time, simmering the risotto until the stock is absorbed each time before adding more stock. Cook until the rice is al dente; it should take between 25 and 30 minutes.
• When the rice is done, stir in the creme fraiche, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Fold in the crabmeat and peas and cook over low heat for 2 minutes, until the crabmeat is warmed through. Add just enough simmering stock to make the risotto moist and creamy. Serve hot in large, shallow bowls and sprinkle with chives and lemon zest.

Steps:

• Cut lobster by piercing the middle of the skull and continue to cut through to the tail. Clean the inside thoroughly.
• Saute 1 of the onions and the garlic together in olive oil for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the lobster halves and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the lobster turns a light red color. Remove the lobster. Pull the meat out of the shell, roughly chop and place in the refrigerator. Return the shells to the pan. At this time, deglaze the pan with 2 1/2 cups of the white wine. Add the cream and let cook uncovered until the cream reduces to 3 cups and turns a light red/orange color, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove the shells.
• Saute the remaining onion in a saucepan in olive oil for 3 minutes, or until transparent. Add the arborio rice and stir for 1 minute. Deglaze with the remaining 1/2 cup white wine and cook until wine is almost completely absorbed.
• Pour in enough water to just cover the rice. Cook until al dente, about 15 minutes. Add the rice to the lobster sauce and cook down for 15 minutes, or until the rice is creamy and tender. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, spoon desired amount of risotto and place the lobster on top. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, heat the stock and keep warm.
• In a large, wide saucepan, melt the butter in the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add a large pinch of salt, then add the rice and stir constantly for about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of broth and simmer, stirring until the broth is almost absorbed. Add more broth, a cup at a time, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding the next. Stir often. Cook until the rice is tender and the mixture is creamy, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Stir in the lobster meat until heated through, then add the chives and ¼ cup of the Parmesan. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with remaining Parmesan. Reserve excess risotto for Eggs Over (Easy) Lobster Risotto Patties (recipe here).

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a medium saucepan. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft. Stir in Arborio rice to coat, then add wine and cook until reduced. Add stock, 2 cups at a time, for a total of 4 cups, and cook until al dente. If you run out of stock and need to add more liquid, use water. Add kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Transfer risotto to a sheet pan and cool in the refrigerator, if making ahead of time.
• Add 1-ounce olive oil to another saucepan and heat oil until almost smoking. Add shiitake mushrooms and reserved risotto and toss. Add remaining 1/2 cup lobster stock, a little at a time. Then add lobster meat, 2 ounces Asiago cheese, and cold butter and stir gently to incorporate and until heated through. Transfer risotto to the center of a plate.
• Meanwhile, in a separate saute pan, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil until almost smoking. Season scallops with 1 teaspoon each kosher salt and pepper. Sear scallops until just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Place scallops on top of risotto.
• Wipe pan out, add 1 tablespoon oil, and heat. Add peas and pea tendrils and toss for 30 seconds. Place on top of risotto and scallops. Drizzle Lobster Oil around edge of plate, garnish with remaining cheese on top, and serve.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place lobster bodies in roasting pan, drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and roast for 45 minutes or until slightly charred.
• In a large stockpot, heat 1/4 cup olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic, onions, carrots, and fennel and saute for 5 minutes. Add wine and cook until reduced by half. Add roasted lobster bodies, water, and all remaining ingredients. Simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Strain and reserve. If making ahead of time, cool stock, and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 day, or freeze for up to 1 month.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Roast lobster bodies for 10 minutes and then transfer to a large saucepan. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain and discard solids. Set aside until ready to use. If making oil more than 2 hours ahead of time, store oil in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a large Dutch oven, heat oil over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 1 minute. Add rice, season with salt and pepper, and stir until coated in oil and lightly toasted, 2 minutes.
• Add kale, season with salt and pepper, and stir until wilted, 30 seconds. Add broth and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Cover and bake until almost all of the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in spinach and peas until spinach is wilted. Add Parmesan, butter and lemon juice, and stir until well blended and saucy. (Liquid will continue to absorb as risotto sits.) Season with salt and pepper. Serve in bowls and top with more Parmesan.
