Ingredients​

• 12 ounces mushrooms sliced
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ cup onion fine diced
• 1 cup arborio rice
• 2 ½ cups chicken stock
• ½ cup heavy cream optional
• ½ cup Romano cheese grated
• ½ teaspoon black pepper to taste

Instructions​

• In a medium saucepan, heat the chicken broth to a simmer.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and one tablespoon of butter over high heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until nicely browned. Approximately 5-6 minutes.
  
  Remove them from the pan and set them aside until needed.
• In the same skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and one tablespoon of butter. Saute the onion for 2 minutes.
• Add in the rice and continue to cook, allowing the rice to toast in the pan for about 2 minutes.
  
  *Don't let the rice burn
• Add 1 cup of the heated chicken stock to the rice in the pan, stirring occasionally.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the rest of the stock, ½ cup at a time, until the rice absorbs all of the liquid.
• When all the stock has been absorbed by the rice, add the cooked mushrooms back into the pan. Remove the pan from the heat and mix well.
• Add the Romano cheese, heavy cream and black pepper. Return to the stove over medium heat and mix thoroughly until you have a creamy consistency.
  
  *The creamy texture of the risotto comes from the frequent stirring of the mixture.
