Slightly sharp and peppery roasted shrimp complement the smooth and creamy risotto.

Directions

 

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Ingredients

  • 12 pound Medium Shrimp, cleaned, rinsed, and pat completely dry
  • 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 14 teaspoon Salt
  • 18 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Step 2

On a baking sheet, toss the shrimp (with tails on) with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for 5 minutes. Turn the shrimp and roast an additional 3 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. When cool enough to handle, remove the tails from the shrimp and chop. Set aside.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Vegetable Broth
  • 12 cup Frozen Peas

Step 3

Bring broth to boil, then reduce to simmer. Heat peas in simmering broth for 1 minute. Remove peas from broth and set aside.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 34 cup Arborio Risotto Rice
  • 34 cup White Wine

Step 4

Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a medium pot. Cook garlic until golden brown. Add rice, stirring into toasted and golden. Remove from the heat and pour in the white wine. Put the pan back on the heat and stir until the wine has evaporated. Add the broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly, until absorbed. Continue cooking the rice, adding the broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing each addition of broth to absorb before adding the next. Continue doing this until the rice is tender but still firm to the bite and the mixture is creamy, about 20 minutes total.

Ingredients

  • 12 cup Parmesan Cheese, Freshly Grated

Step 5

Fold in the shrimp, peas, and cheese until well combined. Taste! Then season with salt and pepper if necessary. Serve immediately.
