Description

Fresh lobster infuses the rice with the wonderful flavor of the sea and rice returns the favor by giving the lobster a creamy texture to swim in.

Ingredients
  • 1 lb of lobster meat
  • 1 1/2 cups of carnaroli rice
  • 7 cups of hot chicken or fish stock (your preference)
  • 1 1/2 cups of white wine
  • 2 Tbsp basil pesto
  • 1 medium sized onion, small dice, divided into 2 portions
  • 2 cloves of garlic finely chopped, divided into 2 portions
  • 1 cup grated Parmigiano regiano cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
xxxx

 

Directions/Steps
  1. In a large pan, sweat half of the onion and garlic in some olive oil on medium heat for approximately 5 minutes.
  2. Add the rice and stir frequently to avoid sticking for 3 minutes.
  3. Add the pesto and stir until well mixed.
  4. Add the white wine and stir the rice.
  5. Allow the rice to absorb almost all of the wine.
  6. Now add enough of the hot stock to cover the rice and allow the rice to slowly soak it up. Once stock is absorbed, repeat the same process.
  7. Patiently repeat this process until rice is almost fully cooked yet still slightly firm to the bite.
  8. Gently give it an occasional stir to keep it from sticking.
  9. In a separate pan, melt the butter and sweat the remaining onion and garlic on medium low heat for 5 minutes. Add the chopped lobster meat and increase the heat to high.
  10. Saute the lobster for 1 minute.
  11. Add the lobster to the rice and mix together.
  12. When the rice is al dente, add the cheese, salt and pepper and mix together.
  13. Serve immediately

I wouldn't put Parmigiano and butter in a Lobster Risotto, other than that looks good!
