Today’s Delicious Creation: Rosemary Infused Citrus Risotto

Hello, fellow foodies! Today, I am sharing with you a unique and flavorful dish that is perfect for cozy fall evenings. The rosemary infused citrus risotto is a harmonious blend of savory and tangy flavors that will surely impress your taste buds.

To create this delectable dish, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 200g Arborio rice
  • 1 liter chicken broth
  • 1 orange (zest and juice)
  • 1 lemon (zest and juice)
  • 150ml white wine
  • 1 shallot (finely chopped)
  • 2 cloves of garlic (minced)
  • 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • 50g grated parmesan cheese
  • 50g butter
  • To taste

For this recipe, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • saucepan
  • wooden spoon
  • zester
  • chef’s knife
  • grater

Start by heating the chicken broth in a saucepan and keeping it warm over low heat. In another saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the shallot, garlic, and rosemary until fragrant. Add the Arborio rice and stir to coat each grain with the butter mixture.

Deglaze the pan with white wine and allow it to cook off before adding the citrus zest and juice. Begin adding the warm chicken broth, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously and allowing the liquid to absorb before adding more. This process will take about 20-25 minutes until the risotto is creamy and al dente.

Once the risotto reaches the desired consistency, stir in the grated parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the rosemary sprigs and discard them. Serve the risotto hot, garnished with additional parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1000g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 250g, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per portion.

One special tip for this recipe is to add a touch of honey to the citrus mixture for a subtle sweetness that contrasts beautifully with the savory elements of the dish.

I hope you enjoy making and indulging in this delightful rosemary infused citrus risotto. Feel free to experiment with different herbs and citrus fruits to make it your own. Bon appétit!
