Lobster Asparagus Risotto
Ingredients
8 cups lobster broth or chicken (I take the lobster shells and boil them in 4-5 cups of water to get as much lobster flavor as possible, strain it and use this for my broth)
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cups arborio rice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup dry white wine or water
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese plus more for garnish
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 cup Lobster meat coarsely chopped ( reserve a few choice pieces for garnishing)
2 cups (blanched )chopped Asparagus
Juice and Zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp sriracha
Micro greens fro garnishing if desired
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. Top with a sprinkle of parmesan, micro greens and a chunk of fresh lobster. Serve immediately.
