| 1 Tbsp |
extra virgin olive oil |
| 1 clove |
garlic (minced) |
| 1/2 large |
onion (diced) |
| 1/2 cup |
arborio rice |
| 1/4 tsp |
salt |
| |
fresh ground black pepper |
| 1 cup |
low sodium chicken stock |
| 3 cups |
water |
| 1/8 tsp |
ground paprika |
| 2/3 cup |
frozen peas (thawed) |
| 1 1/2 ounces |
Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated) |
| 8 ounces |
large shrimp (peeled and deveined) |
Place the olive oil in the bottom of a large skillet. Heat over medium and add the minced garlic and onion. Cook gently, stirring frequently, until the onions just begin to turn translucent.
Add the arborio rice and stir. Cook for about 2 minutes and then add the salt and pepper. Add the chicken stock and enough water to cover the rice. Simmer on medium, partially covered for about 15 minutes. Check to see how close the rice is to being done and add more water if needed. The rice is done when it is still slightly firm but there is no grainy texture when chewed.
Add the paprika, peas, Parmigiano and shrimp. Add a little more water if needed and cook for about 3 - 5 minutes until the shrimp are cooked through.
