Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth, warmed
- 1 shallot, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional)
- 8 ounces fresh salmon fillet, skin removed and diced into small pieces
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges, for serving
- In a large skillet or pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and minced garlic, and sauté until they become translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the Arborio rice to the skillet and stir to coat the grains with the oil, shallot, and garlic mixture. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Pour in the white wine and stir until the wine has been absorbed by the rice.
- Begin adding the warm broth to the skillet, one ladleful at a time, stirring frequently and allowing the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more. Continue this process until the rice is creamy and cooked al dente, which should take about 18-20 minutes.
- While the risotto is cooking, season the diced salmon pieces with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a separate skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced salmon pieces to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are just cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Once the risotto is cooked, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and heavy cream (if using) until well combined. Then, gently fold in the cooked salmon pieces and chopped dill. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serve the salmon risotto hot, garnished with additional chopped dill and lemon wedges on the side.
