Lady Cream Pea Risotto
- 4-6
- 15 minutes
- 30 minutes
Ingredients:
1 cup onions, chopped fine
1 cup cooked lady cream peas
½ cup dry white wine
1-2 cups hot chicken broth
1 cup Pecorino Romano cheese, freshly grated
¼ cup unsalted butter, divided
To taste kosher salt
To taste cracked black pepper
Instructions:
Add half the butter to a skillet on medium heat and sauté onions until tender, about 3 minutes. Add peas, then deglaze with white wine. Stir well. Add hot broth in stages. As it is absorbed, stir mixture and add more broth to cover; repeat. When peas are tender and broth is absorbed (about 10 minutes), finish the risotto by stirring in grated cheese and remaining whole butter to thicken (until creamy). Salt and pepper to taste.
